*Hello,***

*We would like to extend a warm invitation to students and faculty within
Health as a Bridge to Peace to attend the 12th Annual International 
Women?s
and Children?s Health (*IWCH*) Conference. If you could pass this
information along to your members, we would very much appreciate it. The *
IWCH* network is a collaboration of McMaster students, faculty and 
community
members who are working together to improve women?s and children?s health,
at the local as well as global level. Since 1998 the *IWCH* network has
hosted an annual one day conference to bring together newcomers and 
leaders
in the area of international women?s and children?s health. ***

*The conference will take place on October 2, 2009 at the Royal Botanical
Gardens in Burlington, Ontario; more details will follow. The goal of the
2009 *IWCH* Conference is to bring together students, faculty and 
community
members from multiple disciplines to discuss the importance of
community-centred health initiatives, both in Canada and abroad, and to
collaborate on interdisciplinary strategies for change. The conference 
will
include opportunities for individuals to obtain information about becoming
involved in international children?s and women?s health. ***

*We will also be accepting submissions for this year's photo auction. This
is an opportunity for applicants to raise funds for a local non-profit
organization while displaying their artistic ability and highlighting some
of their work in the International or Canadian Health Community. The
photographs will be judged by a panel on the day of the conference, and 
the
winning submission featured in the Canadian Medical Association Journal! 
We
would like to remind potential applicants that consent must be obtained 
from
subjects of the photograph in order to be published in the CMAJ.***
