Global Health Equity | Breakout Session | SID-US 2024 Conference

Global Health Equity is a critical goal where disparities in healthcare access and outcomes persist Achieving health equity requires addressing the root causes of inequality, including socioeconomic factors, and structural barriers to healthcare access. We’ll examine the Global Health Equity, social determinants of health, human rights, localization, and impacts on the community.
​The speakers will address the disproportionate burden of disease faced by marginalized and vulnerable populations, women, children, refugees, and local communities in LMIC, sharing spark of hope: experiences that empower communities, promote gender equality, and enhance access to essential healthcare services to help close the health equity gap.
