Course Details

This introductory course is designed to expose participants to the broad, interdisciplinary work of Health Equity. It will provide participants an overview of the foundational knowledge that will prepare individuals and organizations to pursue community-based work focused on health equity, social impact, and systems change. In this course, participants will explore a variety of approaches for both understanding and rooting history in order to explore the impact of health on socioeconomic and community outcomes; including the social determinants of health, root cause analysis, ecosystems analysis, and more. Participants will leave the course with a working draft of a health equity narrative. Note: This course is one of a series of courses on Health Equity Work, which will culminate in a Health Equity Planning document of which the Health Equity narrative is a component.

Although not required, we recommend that you take this course prior to NR230 Centering the Community in Health Equity Work or NR260 Community Projects in Health Equity Work for the most optimal experience.
