Partners In Health Canada

Partners In Health Canada We are a social justice and global health organization striving to make health care a human right. We refuse to accept that any life is worth less than another.

Partners In Health (PIH) was founded in 1987 to support a one-room health clinic serving a destitute squatter settlement in rural Haiti. PIH’s founders believed the conditions in the settlement — the crushing poverty, absence of modern health care and pervasive poor health — were not inevitable. These were social conditions subject to human intervention and so could be changed — in Haiti or anywhere in the world. PIH Canada opened our offices in 2011 to strengthen the work and add our voice to the Canadian movement for health as a human right. We bring the benefits of modern medicine to those who have suffered from the overt and subtle injustices of the world, in the past and in the present.

🧡 Today, on the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we honour Survivors of Canada’s residential school system, their families, and their communities.

Reconciliation is ongoing work that it calls on all of us. At PIH Canada, we remain committed to challenging colonial systems that continue to shape who gets care, who gets sick, and who gets left behind.

Tuberculosis (TB) is the world’s deadliest infectious disease.
It’s preventable. It’s treatable. And yet, every 20 seconds, someone dies.

Many believe TB is a disease of the past. But it isn’t:

Over 80% of cases and deaths are in low- and middle-income countries.

In Canada, Inuit in Nunavut face TB rates 300 times higher than the non-Indigenous population.

On Sept 25, our team will be at Parliament Hill calling for Canadian leadership in the next federal budget.

You don’t have to be in Ottawa to make a difference.
📢 Email your MP today and tell them Canada must fund the fight to .

🗓️ Why now? Budget priorities are being set and MPs need to hear from Canadians before Sept 30.

Students, dreamers, and doers ✨
The 2025 Student Training Institute brought together over 40 advocates from across Canada, united by the belief that health is a human right.

We learned, laughed, organized, and built solidarity across chapters from coast to coast. We leave this weekend with tools, plans, and most importantly, each other. 💜

Here’s to a year of advocacy, fundraising, and community building, and to making health equity real in our lifetime.

📚 We’re starting something new and we’d love for you to be part of it.

Doing Hard Things With Friends is PIH Canada’s new reading club: a space to connect through short essays, speeches, and stories that challenge us to think deeper about global health, solidarity, and what care really means.

How it works:
• One short reading, ahead of time
• 60 minutes of conversation with a PIHC facilitator
• Two options: join us in Toronto or online
• Open to everyone: students, health workers, donors, and the justice-curious

Our first sessions are this October. Sign up today and look out for your RSVP link!
