In this panel, experts delve into the complexities of providing culturally appropriate healthcare and meeting the needs of specific communities. The discussion highlights the structural nature of racism and discrimination, leading to issues such as lack of trust in the healthcare system, misdiagnosis, and disproportionate disease burdens faced by People of African Descent. Gain a deeper understanding of these critical issues and the importance of addressing racial bias in clinical diagnosis. • Following the panel, an interactive session begins where we tap into the collective expertise of our audience. Participants are encouraged to identify challenges and propose practical solutions to improve access to healthcare and reduce health inequities for People of African Descent. This constructive conversation aims to develop a comprehensive approach to anti-racism and anti-discrimination in health, with a focus on how these discussions can inform the EU Anti-racism action plan. • Speakers: • Moderated by Wouter Arrazola de Oñate, Belgian Lung and Tuberculosis Association, Public • Health Director • Layal Liverpool (Online), Science Journalist, Author of “Systemic: How Racism Is Making Us Ill” • Tanja Gangarova, DeZIM-Institute Berlin, National Discrimination and Racism Monitor, Researcher • Alana Helberg-Proctor, University of Amsterdam, Faculty of Social and • Behavioural Sciences, Associate Professor • ABOUT THE EVENT: Racism and discrimination are fundamental determinants of health, profoundly affecting physical and mental well-being. They are far-reaching systemic issues, creating environments where marginalised communities face continuous social and economic challenges. Addressing these determinants is crucial for achieving health equity and ensuring that all individuals have the opportunity to realise their Right to Health as defined in Article 12 of the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights. • This two-day DisQo Stakeholder Network conference, organised by EPHA and OHCHR in cooperation with Artikel 1 Midden Nederland and De Hofnar Present B.V., brings together leading experts and stakeholders to address the pervasive issues of racism, discrimination, and their profound impacts on health, with a specific focus on People of African Descent. Through insightful case studies, panel discussions, and interactive sessions, participants will explore the intersection of these critical areas, share best practices, and develop actionable strategies to promote health equity. Join us in advancing the dialogue and fostering collaborative efforts to combat racism and improve health outcomes for all. • Find out more: https://epha.org/events/the-right-to-...
