PEGASUS Institute has engaged in several meetings with the World Health Organization (WHO) Academy to explore potential opportunities for collaboration. During these discussions, it was recognized that PEGASUS Institute has much to offer in terms of learning and sharing expertise, particularly in the area of Peace through Health. WHO’s Global Health and Peace Initiative, led by Friederike Bubenzer, Mathilde Boddaert, and other experts, was identified as a potential area of synergy.

Given that PEGASUS Institute already has a Peace through Health course developed for our McGill Summer Institute in Peace, Health, and Sustainability, the next step is to package this course professionally to meet the needs of the WHO Academy.

It was suggested that we enlist the help of a paid professional—or a volunteer with sufficient expertise—to assist in professionally packaging our course material in preparation for partnership with the WHO Academy.

This project is actively contributing to the achievement of the following UN Sustainable Development Goals:
