Interested in health equity training?
In the past few years, many people (teachers, health department staff, promotora trainers, doctors, etc) have approached JHA and remarked that the health equity concepts that we teach and promote are so new that they could use some training. JHA is exploring the idea of conducting a health equity training workshop in Seattle in August, 2011. The JHA training would be divided into two parts: 1) Health Equity content delivery (2-3 days); and 2) Practicing teaching health equity to others (Train the trainer concept, 2 days). Participants can attend Parts 1 and 2 or just Part 1. If you are interested, please fill out this survey and send it back to us. Thank you.
Does the Health Equity Content cover areas for health researchers (such as analyses such as Benefit incidence analysis) and how these could be applied for improving the health systems of a country?
Thanks
Hi Sondi,
I thought I had replied to you earlier on this question. My apologies. No, we do not cover areas like Benefit incididence analysis for health researchers. Our health equity training is really about teaching people about health equity concepts – learning about the societal determinants of health and how to take action on them at both the individual and community level.
