Join us as we investigate the complex challenge of equity improvement in episode four of our new podcast series: Conversations in Health and Care Improvement. Whether you are a healthcare professional, a quality improvement professional or simply passionate about improving health outcomes, watch this podcast to: 

• Explore the complex challenge of health equity improvement.


• Consider the deep structural aspects of society and organisations that are perpetuating health inequities.  Embrace our guests’ invitation to start with a deep dive into our own values, beliefs and assumptions. 


• Understand how we can apply quality improvement science to engage with groups of people who might be being left behind and build trusting relationships that allow us to work together to co-produce better systems.


• Learn from real-world examples shared by our guests who share their personal experience and insights and hopes for the future. 

Our guests on this episode are Komal Bajaj, Chief Quality Officer and Medical Director of Sustainability, NYC Health and Hospitals, and Dr Bram Wispelwey, Associate Physician at Brigham & Women’s Hospital, Massachusetts, and Co-Founder of Health for Palestine.
