Proposal

In this presentation, we review the World Health Organization and how their mission of putting an end to “Zero-dose children” aligns with the United Nations sustainability development goals. Links are also made to the local community, through discussing efforts made by the WE-Spark Health Institute (a collaboration between local hospitals, St. Clair College, and the University of Windsor) to make COVID-19 vaccinations more accessible to vulnerable populations, and through research done at the University of Windsor by Dr. Paula van Wyk to address vaccine hesitancy in the community. This is a part of the Outstanding Scholars Curriculum.
