McGill’s 2nd year medical students learn about how to recognize the signs of human trafficking in clinical settings.

On Friday August 30th, the 2nd year class at McGill University's medical school, nearly 200 future physicians, attended the annual human trafficking lecture.

This lecture was integrated into McGill's medical school curriculum in 2018 as a result of 2 years of work from CAMSAHT. Guido Guberman, one of CAMSAHT's co-founders and a student at McGill, says he feels very proud of CAMSAHT and of McGill for this achievement:

“The inclusion of this course wouldn't have been possible without the support from my university; I am happy to see that McGill is demonstrating openness and innovation.”

McGill is one of seven medical schools in Canada that have integrated human trafficking education as a result of the work of CAMSAHT. With over 40 members in 12 medical schools, CAMSAHT continues to work to educate a future generation of medical professionals about human trafficking.
