**Working for the University of Alberta**

The University of Alberta acknowledges that we are located on Treaty 6 territory, and respects the histories, languages and cultures of First Nations, Métis, Inuit and all First Peoples of Canada, whose presence continues to enrich our vibrant community.

The University of Alberta is teeming with change makers, community builders, and world shapers who lead with purpose each and every day. We are home to more than 40,000 students in 200+ undergraduate and 500+ graduate programs, over 13,000 faculty and staff, 260,000 alumni worldwide and have been recognized as one of Canada’s Greenest Employers for over a decade.

Your work will have a meaningful influence on a fascinating cross section of people—from our students and stakeholders, to our renowned researchers and innovators who are quite literally curing diseases, making discoveries and generating solutions that make the world healthier, safer, stronger, and more just.

**Department summary**

The Centre for Healthy Communities (CHC) in the School of Public Health works with our partners to address complex issues that impact community health, wellbeing, and sustainability. We recognize that health and wellness are created outside of the health-care sector, so we work across sectors to focus on root causes, prevent illness and promote community health and equity. We collaborate with government, municipalities, non-governmental organizations, the private sector, community members and other academics to provide timely, evidence-informed solutions to help communities achieve their healthiest potential. We help our partners to mobilize their knowledge and share their healthy community-building experiences with others. Since the solutions for one community can be adapted to many, our work has both immediate and enduring impact on society. Dr. Candace Nykiforuk is the Founding and Scientific Director of the Centre for Healthy Communities.

**Position summary**

The Research Assistant will support the development of implementation case studies based on previous project work conducted by the CHC through the Alberta Healthy School Community Wellness Fund (AHSCWF). Implementation cases will specifically be used to profile Comprehensive School Health (CSH) strategies used in the AHSCWF project. Primary duties include: compiling AHSCWF-related data from schools and school authorities throughout Alberta; work collaboratively with the CHC team, research team, and partners to identify a sub-set of AHSCWF cases to profile; complete primary data collection with identified champions; and prepare a series of case profiles for schools and/or school authorities throughout Alberta.

**Duties**
- Compile and synthesis AHSCWF-related data from schools and school authorities throughout Alberta (using existing datasets). Datasets includes a variety of quantitative and qualitative sources. Key to this activity will include synthesizing information across multiple data sources spanning multiple project years. Through this activity a subset of cases will be identified to profile.
- Prepare a series of case profiles for selected schools and/or school authorities within Alberta. Key to this activity will be integrating an equity and intersectionality lens, while ensuring appropriateness to a practice-based audience.

- Prepare internal written reports and documentation and ensures timely submission to support research team’s activities.
