Health equity conversations are evolving. Across public health, practitioners are taking a deeper look at the structural determinants of health, including power, oppression, and the systems that drive inequities. Drawing on the findings of a newly released NCCDH environmental scan, this webinar will explore current public health actions, key challenges, and practical opportunities to address the structural determinants of health and advance health equity action from where you are.
