Inequities have been intentionally and unintentionally entrenched in our systems and institutions for hundreds of years, including in our current healthcare system. While mainstream institutions have gained greater interest in assessing health equity and discussing barriers, there is a need to push beyond gathering data and raising awareness towards implementing and investing in equity-focused action.
Join Stefanie Stuart-Williams, Provincial Health Equity Specialist, and Nakita Sunar, Health Equity Coach at CAMH’s Provincial System Support Program, as they discuss moving beyond assessing equity and toward equity action. Together, they will:
- outline some of the strengths and limitations of the common uses of health equity assessments and equity-focused data gathering
- describe some helpful practices for moving from assessing health inequities to equity-focused action
- discuss a case example of health equity action planning within a youth wellness initiative.
