Course Description
Students will explore the intersectionality of healthcare, community engagement, and the role of a Justice, Equity, Diversity & Inclusion (JEDI) framework in achieving health equity. This course will address the most pressing issues challenging the health of people through building connections and critically analyzing issues of health inequity from the distinct perspectives of healthcare and the lived experiences of the community.
