Michelle Patrick (BSc’10, MA’14) works with partners all across the Dal community to create African Heritage Month events that leave a lasting impact.

“Dalhousie is very diverse and it’s nice to celebrate each part of that,” said Patrick, who has been with PLANS (based out of the Global Health Office (GHO) in the Faculty of Medicine) for two years and is also a former Dal student.

Patrick said she and her colleagues in the GHO play a part in coordinating African Heritage Month events held at Dal each year.

This year, Patrick said her office is particularly thrilled to be partnering with the Nova Scotia Brotherhood (NSB) initiative for a lecture on the health and wellness of African Nova Scotia men happening on February 10 in the Tupper Medical Building.
