The Nursing and Allied Health Research and Knowledge Translation (NAHRKT) team at BC Cancer created a Cultural Safety Working Group in 2022 in response to learning opportunities they identified in their provincially dispersed department. Two years later, this small group is being recognized for inspiring their colleagues to conduct research and health systems work in a more culturally safe way that meaningfully considers the needs of Indigenous Peoples.

The ACP Nursing Working Group has received a BC Cancer Excellence Award in the category of Teamwork and Collaboration in Action.
The BC Cancer Excellence Awards provide an opportunity to shine a light on the inspiring people and teams who help ensure that British Columbians receive world-class, patient-centered cancer screening, treatment and support, and benefit from new discoveries that are helping change the face of cancer.
BC Cancer Foundation is the fundraising partner of BC Cancer, which includes BC Cancer Research. Together with our donors, we are changing cancer outcomes for British Columbians by funding innovative research and personalized treatment and care.
