Description

Let’s keep it real—health equity is under attack. From climate funding getting slashed to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs being gutted, to reproductive rights being rolled back, the current administration is making some dangerous moves. And guess who’s getting hit the hardest? Marginalized communities, low-income families, and, well… probably you or someone you love. In this episode of Higher Education with Dr. B Fran breaks down what health disparities actually are, why health equity should be a non-negotiable, and how political chaos in the U.S. is causing ripple effects worldwide. She will also dive into how global health equity efforts will be diminished by these funding cuts and research efforts.
