A Canada-Wide Community for Pregnancy and Post-Pregnancy Care
We bring together persons with lived experience, healthcare professionals, researchers, and policymakers to address pregnancy-related near-miss events and deaths. Through collaborative work, we co-develop practical tools and resources to bridge research and clinical practice, as we strive for a culture of equity, inclusion, and safety for all women and gender-diverse people in Canada.
From Research to Systems Change
The GEM Hub mobilizes knowledge to address pregnancy-related near-miss events and deaths. We turn research into real-world solutions by:
-
Supporting partnered research with affected communities
-
Developing practical tools and resources to improve clinical care
-
Building a community of practice to reflect and share what we learn along the way
The Land That Holds Us
The GEM Hub Team is situated on the traditional and unceded territory of the Kanien’kehá:ka Nation, the recognized custodians of the lands and waters of Tiohtià:ke/Montréal.
In our acknowledgement of the ongoing impacts of colonialism, we continue learning individually and communally to facilitate systemic changes, especially those led by Indigenous peoples and communities, with particular focus on pregnancy and post-pregnancy care.
