Framing the Dialogue on Race and Ethnicity to Advance Health Equity: Proceedings of a Workshop

By Board on Population Health and Public Health Practice, Roundtable on Population Health Improvement, The National Academies of Sciences Engineering and Medicine, et al.

In February 2016, the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine held a workshop in which speakers shared strategies for individuals, organizations, and communities to advance racial and health equity. Participants discussed increasing awareness about the role of historical contexts and dominant narratives in interpreting data and information about different racial and ethnic groups, framing messages for different social and political outcomes, and readying people to institutionalize practices, policies, and partnerships that advance racial and health equity. This publication serves as a factual summary of the presentations and discussions from the workshop.
