The virtual AQUHN Webinar 2023 was hosted by the School on December 5-6 on the theme “Empowering Health Narratives: Advancing Rigour and Impact in Qualitative Health Research”. The two-day event attracted an impressive 700-plus participants from 35 countries and 242 institutions in the region. We were grateful to have four renowned speakers share their expertise on qualitative healthcare research:
