More Just, More Humane: Reimagining the Social Role of Medicine

Arno Kumagai, MD
University of Toronto

The education and mentoring of future health practitioners play a critical role in their care of the ill and suffering. What does moral education look like? How can we develop a more unified approach to teaching and learning for societal
significance?

Dr. Kumagai will consider these questions and explore the concept of critical consciousness in teaching for equity and justice. He will show how
stories, reflections, and dialogue can foster transformative learning and lead to transformation of the practice of medicine.
