Changemaker Award: Nominate a medical student or resident who is making a difference

Are you a medical student or resident who goes above and beyond to advocate for a stronger healthcare system? Do you know someone who is? If so, nominate them for Doctors of BC’s Changemaker Award and give them the recognition they deserve – and the chance to win $2,000!

The Changemaker Award recognizes outstanding advocacy work demonstrated through exemplary leadership and grassroots initiatives in BC.

They may be involved with their local constituency, or be an active member of an association or political party. One thing is crucial: successful candidates are proactive and passionate about improving BC’s health care system. 

Winners are presented with a $2,000 cheque and an engraved plaque and at the Doctors of BC’s Annual Awards Ceremony, taking place in Vancouver on November 26th, 2021.
