Framing Dialogue for Racial and Health Equity

2016

This National Academies report summarizes the proceedings of a workshop on handling health inequities across racial and ethnic boundaries. Focusing on strategies to advance racial and health equity, the workshop included presentations by keynote speakers and the review of case studies. Participants explored the role of historical contexts and dominant narratives in the interpretation of information, the framing messages for social and political outcomes, and the preparation required for people to institutionalize the methods to reach the equity goals presented.
