15th Workshop Highlights Document
Samuel Montiege and Lise Gauvin have created a comprehensive 38 page document summarizing the highlights from the 15th Annual INRICH Workshop. It includes an introduction which gives an overview of the current state of child poverty in Québec. It also offers a concise synthesis of the Workshop proceedings and recommendations. The bulk of the document provides a summary of the key point that came out of each Workshop session and panel. The document is available in both French and English: 15th Annual INRICH Workshop Highlights | Faits saillants du 15e atelier annuel d’INRICH.

The International Network for Research on Inequalities in Child Health (INRICH), formed in 2008, arose out of a research collaboration between Professors Louise Séguin (Université de Montréal, Québec, Canada) and Nick Spencer (University of Warwick, UK). Since then, leading researchers in the area of child health inequalities and equity from Australia, Brazil, Chile, China, Canada, Europe, South Africa, South America and the United States have joined the network.
At our inaugural workshop in Montreal in 2008, we set ourselves specific objectives. Since then we have expanded our membership of active researchers in the field to 172 and we have held annual workshops. Students and post-doctoral fellows have presented and actively contributed to the workshops and to INRICH research collaborations. Moreover INRICH facilitates student exchanges between different members.
The INRICH network has already held successful high-level workshops, in Montreal, Canada (November 2008), Coventry, UK (November 2009), Recife, Brazil (November, 2010), Rotterdam, Netherlands (June 2012), Stanford, USA (June 2013), Stockholm (June 2014), Montreal, Canada (2015), Barcelona, Spain (2016) and Cornell, USA (2017), Bradford, UK (2018), Toronto, Canada (2019), Rotterdam, Netherlands (June 2021), Los Angeles, USA (2022), Paris, France (2023), Montréal, Canada (2024), Liverpool, UK (2025) and Hamilton, Canada (planned for 2026).
Since the beginnings of the network, our members have established many collaborative research projects and have published in collaboration a great number of scientific papers in international peer-reviewed journals, among other realizations. We intend to establish a systematic programme of work with policy makers and our CIHR-funded project incorporates work with policy makers and knowledge users.
