Let’s talk about applying intersectionality in public health: A two-part webinar series
The term is increasingly used (and misused) in both public health and in societal discourse. Public health approaches claiming to be rooted in intersectionality are often whitened, omitting race and racism; or flattened, lacking a focus on building power.
When applied faithfully, an intersectional approach can support public health actors to recognize multiple systems of power and oppression (e.g. racism, classism, sexism, colonization) and collaborate with others to tackle these systems. A more nuanced understanding of intersectionality, alongside critical reflection on what it means to apply intersectionality in public health, has the potential to transform how health equity issues are identified, examined and addressed.
About the series
In this two-part webinar series, participants will have the opportunity to review the historic roots of intersectionality, discuss its relevance to public health and health equity, and explore what it means to “take an intersectionality approach”.
