Public health, today
More than ever before, public health has become the concern and focus of most countries around the world, Canada at the
forefront. The complex interplay of socio-economic determinants, emergence and re-emergence of certain diseases, along with
overarching nation politics and economics have immensely refined public health practices. Today, public health is defined
by evidence-base policy analysis, public accountability via program evaluation, and systematic stakeholder collaboration and
knowledge translation efforts. We, at EJPHC, are committed to exactly that.

Why Consulting?
FRESH PERSPECTIVE & OBJECTIVITY
Our external perspective offers a fresh set of eyes. It can be easy for organizations to fall under daily routine and regressive approaches. We
provide that critical eye towards measurement, analysis, and improvement. The nature of consultancy entails an impartial viewpoint. This allows us to detect problems that your organizations couldn’t otherwise see.
EVIDENCE-BASED & BEST PRACTICE
Having been privilege to working with multiple clients across various sectors of public health, we have recognized a set of common challenges and effective solutions, applying lessons learned as we tackle similar projects. This
also ensures that EJPHC clients receive high quality work, relatively faster.
SYSTEMATIC APPROACH
With a team of highly trained graduates, a systematic approach is guranteed. Consultants clearly define goals, objectives, roles, and timelines. Having a clear and narrow scope means that the project will not get off track, satisfying stakeholder interests, and saving organizations resources and money.
INTERDISCIPLINARY EXPERTISE
With access to an nationa (and international) network of experts, our projects are
delivered on-time with the highest level of excellence. We offer an incredible level
of expertise and an unmathcable access to multidisciplinary team of profesisonals.
