On December 8-10, 2020, the National Academy of Medicine Culture of Health Program will host a virtual listening workshop
to discuss barriers, models, and opportunities to using community
knowledge and strength to drive health equity policy and research.
The objectives of this meeting are to:
- Examine and understand the current landscape for community-driven efforts to advance health equity, especially in communities most affected by inequity (Black/African American, Latinx, and Indigenous populations), and center the voices of the young people in those communities.
- Identify and discuss the barriers and gaps experienced by communities and organizations supporting communities working to advance health equity.
- Examine promising models of community-driven efforts to change or enact policy that advances health equity, and identify strategies to address root causes of inequity that can inform the work of other communities.
- Identify the priorities for community-driven efforts to advance health equity, and opportunities to use community knowledge, strengths, and resiliency to inform the way forward, especially in a world affected by COVID-19 and increased calls for racial equity.
