Series Details

About

Through this series, we will examine some of the biggest issues in healthcare access and quality in a public health context. We will discuss environmental, cultural, and other factors that limit access to medical care. I will also facilitate discussion sessions if people are comfortable sharing their own thoughts about what limits access to proper healthcare, so come ready to share your ideas!

Tutor Qualifications

I'm a speaker and participant at the Global Health Leaders Conference where I attend speaker presentations about the biggest issues in healthcare inequality, as well as my own presentation about inequities in cancer diagnosis.

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

While I do not have a strict attendance policy, the material I will cover may build on content covered in previous sessions. Please try to attend as many sessions as you can :)
