Health & social Equity Collective
Working together for equal access and experience in health and social care
Who we are
The Health and Social Equity Collective consists of researchers, community leaders, policy makers, and health professionals responding to persistent social and health inequities.
What we want to change
We aim to address inequity by identifying and engaging the levers of change within and across institutions. Specifically, using our collaboration and collective activities to:
Generate a more inclusive knowledge base and make it translatable to individuals, communities, and policymakers’ awareness
Tackle entrenched inequalities in education, training, and capacity-building
Redistribute power by working in partnership with communities affected by health inequities
Our Approach
We aim to co-create inclusive, sustainable, and interdisciplinary working to tackle inequities in:
What gets researched
Whose voices are heard
Training and career pipelines
What evidence is valued
We centre the lived experience of marginalised communities to challenge ‘deficit’ narratives and instigate fair, impactful and human-centred solutions that confront health and social inequalities locally, regionally and globally.
