THE STORY OF THE MANITOBA CENTRE FOR HEALTH POLICY

MCHP is rich with stories that punctuate its history. A qualitative study exploring the details of MCHP was written by Dr. Gail Marchessault to celebrate the founding of the Centre and the 20 years of research it has produced. This study explores the challenges and success of MCHP and includes insights from key people at Manitoba Health and the University of Manitoba, including the Faculty of Medicine and the Department of Community Health Sciences.
