The road to achieving health equity is wide and long – but one thing Atlantic Fellows based at Tekano understand; is that we get further when working together in catalytic communities.

The Tekano community is one that pulses with a passion for social change. The rhythm of the community is directed by the beat of justice and advocacy.

These are the voices of Tekano.
