Description
The Advancing a Healthier Wisconsin Endowment (AHW), based at the Medical College of Wisconsin, supports community-led learning events addressing gaps in Wisconsin’s current and future health workforce. Events should build knowledge, skills, capacity, or networks and help participants apply their learning to improve health and health equity in Wisconsin.
The opportunity aligns with AHW’s Education and Workforce Development pathway, covering the health research, health care, and community and public health workforce. Priorities include developing a workforce responsive to Wisconsin’s needs, strengthening recruitment, retention, and continuous learning, and supporting health workers’ purpose, resilience, and fulfillment. Support is available for one-time events or a defined series, including existing events with new or innovative content.
