  • Summary

  • This podcast is produced from a recent Partners for Advancing Health Equity webinar, held
    November 2023. Moderated by our podcast host, Caryn Bell, she and guests discuss how
    recognition of structural racism, sexism, and other structural marginalization are the root
    causes of health inequities. However, it is not enough. Efforts to make changes on the
    structural level require shifts in power that center the views, experiences, and desires of the
    communities that experience harm. Understanding and collaboration across multiple sectors
    are needed to build community power to affect change.

    This discussion showcased work that uplifts the idea that building power in communities is key to
    changing structural drivers of health inequities and health equity.

    Host and Moderator: Caryn Bell, Associate Director, Partners for Advancing Health Equity,
    Assistant Professor, Tulane School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine

    Panelists:
    Jonathan Heller, Senior Health Equity Fellow, University of Wisconsin-Madison

    Gigi Barsoum, Principal, Barsoum Policy Consulting
