Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

EqualHealth builds critical consciousness and collective action globally, in the pursuit of health equity for all.

  • Campaign Against Racism(CAR): The CAR is a network of 17 active chapters in 10 different countries. Each chapter declares a strategic goal aligned to addressing upstream issues that contribute to poor health outcomes directly affecting their communities and commits to be a part of the collective campaign with support from the CAR organizers. Chapters engage together and share experiences around social medicine praxis. To date,the campaign has at least 2000 people on its listserv and social media platforms. CAR chapters and members also collaborate across common themes through working groups focusing on key issues. Last year CAR partnered with at least three US based academic institutions which included hosting webinars for health professionals and support in person conferences for Health professionals. These activities benefitted hundreds of American and international health professionals. The CAR team also supported health professionals at international conferences outside the USA . The team also made a presentation at a United Nations forum in Geneva joining global partners in a continued efforts to improve health outcomes of most vulnerable groups globally. In addition to webinars and convenings the CAR team also supported one of its chapters in submitting a case for publication in the Lancet journal . In October 2024 about 40 international health professionals and community met in Knoxville Tennessee which was the first in person convening after lifting of travel restrictions due to the Covid -19. This was an opportunity for them to network and explore opportunities for international collaboration.

  • Social Medicine course: In 2024, EqualHealth conducted educational training courses in social medicine for thirty-six (36) students drawn from marginalized communities in Haiti and Uganda. This four-month transnational program utilizes a transformative education model aimed at equipping the upcoming generation of healthcare providers with the essential tools and knowledge required to address health inequities and power structures. Furthermore, it prepares participants to effectively lead interventions that are tailored to local contexts. The curriculum covers a range of topics, including social determinants of health, colonialism, and narrative medicine. The course was delivered in a hybrid format, comprising both in-person and online sessions. It was led and implemented by EqualHealth staff, who possess diverse backgrounds and extensive field experience, supplemented by the contributions of international experts, professors, and researchers. In our ongoing effort to evolve our teaching methods through capacity-building initiatives, we conducted three faculty development sessions for our teaching team on June 13 and 25. Bringing together faculty staff from our locations in Haiti, Minnesota, and Uganda, the sessions delved into key topics such as diversity, Narrative Medicine, Story and Writing as pedagogy, and Global Solidarity. These sessions provided an invaluable opportunity for self-reflection on power and privilege, sharing pedagogical strategies across sites, and identifying pathways for enhancing the quality and impact of our courses.

  • Mutual Aid: EqualHealth is committed to strengthening the capacity of Haitian healthcare providers operating in resource-constrained environments. We continue to provide financial support for their local activities and offer strategic consultations focused on sustainability and capacity building. In June 2024, our dedicated team in Haiti, in partnership with the Social Medicine Association of Healthcare Providers in Haiti (SMAH) and local chapter members, organized a vibrant community-building gathering. This event not only allowed participants to connect with one another but also aimed to strengthen the collaborative bonds essential for addressing the numerous challenges they face in their work. Around 15 participants engaged in thoughtful discussions about the complexities of delivering healthcare in demanding conditions. These conversations addressed obstacles such as limited resources and logistical difficulties, while also exploring the innovative strategies and solutions they have developed to improve patient care.
