Cluster lead, Dr. Wendy Norman, was recently awarded The King Charles III Coronation Medal. The King Charles III Coronation Medal recognizes individuals for their outstanding service to Canada. It reflects values cherished by both King Charles III and Canadians, including dedication to service, environmental stewardship, sustainability, and our nation's diversity.
Dr. Norman founded and leads Canada’s Contraception & Abortion Research Team which convenes government, health system and service decision makers with national family planning organizations, and researchers and health professionals representing a wide range of disciplines. CART aims to conduct health policy and services research to enable equitable access for populations across Canada to the knowledge, methods and services they require to time and space their pregnancies and achieve their own reproductive goals. CART research has informed federal, and provincial policies for contraception and abortion services and methods, health professional licensing policies, and national clinical guidelines.
