ICH’s Director of Research, Leah Zallman, is attending the invitation-only Sharing Knowledge Conference in Jackson, Mississippi. This conference is held by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation in collaboration with AcademyHealth and the National Collaborative for Health Equity. The three-day meeting includes a packed agenda of plenaries, interactive sessions, and breakout sessions full of learning around the theme: Racial Justice and Health. The goal of this convening is to harness transdisciplinary evidence to address the drivers of inequitable life outcomes and advance social change, with an emphasis on addressing one of the nation’s most durable and original forms of oppression—racism.
