Compelling evidence also demonstrates the startling and immense health inequities our society faces today and continues to perpetuate. As a result, the consideration of equity within HIA and HiAP is vital to achieving equitable health outcomes, and ensuring health inequities are not perpetuated through new practices.

This webinar will focus specifically on why equity is critical to HiAP and HIA, and specific strategies to implement and ensure equity. The speakers will discuss principles and frameworks for the inclusion of equity, as well as present examples of the principles in practice. There will be opportunity for audience Q & A, as well as discussion.
