This NCCDH on-demand webinar focuses on the importance of advancing racial health equity.
Recognizing the importance of using a racial equity lens in addressing all the requirements set out in the Health Equity Standard under the Ontario Public Health Standards, this on-demand webinar will describe the different forms and levels of racism, why racism is a public health issue and the public health roles for racial equity.
This content explores the meaning of embracing a decolonial, anti-racist practice, and identifies the tools needed to begin on that journey.
Listeners will learn about:

institutional, systemic and individual racism and their impact on health;
intersectionality, anti-oppression, allyship and systems change and how these relate to anti-racist action;
how racial equity fits with the Ontario Public Health Foundational Standards; and
public health’s role in leading racial equity work.
