Over the course of one week, over 270 UBC MD students, residents, alumni, and UBC MAA members from all over BC, and even as far as Saskatoon, joined us for UBC Medical Alumni Association Wellness Week 2024, a hybrid opportunity to focus on health and wellbeing. We had students from all four years and from all four distributed sites, 18 resident specialties, and alumni from 36 MD class years.
Throughout the week, participants completed over 77 unique activities, including things you’ve never done before like acroyoga, pottery, and indoor skydiving! Over 20 people also attended our second hybrid Yoga in the Courtyard event from the UBC Medical Student &Alumni Centre Vancouver or online from home!
This year, we added a Photo Community Canvas for participants to share their activities throughout the week and inspire each other to stay in engage. Check out the page to see what your UBC medical community did during the week!
