- the key themes and takeaways from the conference, ranging from respecting Indigenous voices to the power of storytelling and healing through art.
- the importance of centering community voices and restructuring power and authority
building strong connections within our communities
- the experiences of internationally trained physicians
- the role of research in addressing healthcare disparities

Refugee Care App
The clinical information contained in this application is a consensus from the physician group working at the Calgary Refugee Health Program, and is based on years of experience treating most of the refugees and refugee claimants in Calgary. It is meant to be used as a clinical resource to guide Canadian family physicians through the initial screening and management of newly arrived refugees and refugee claimants.
While these recommendations apply mainly to refugee patients, they could also be useful for physicians seeing newly arrived immigrants.
