Description

When people closest to problems have the power to influence solutions, those solutions often benefit everyone. In our final episode of this series on civic health, hosts Beth Silver and Ericka Burroughs-Girardi explore strategies to ensure everyone has a voice and the opportunity for collective change. They are joined by Solange Gould, the co-director of Human Impact Partners, who discusses the role narratives play in building power and improving civic health.  Dr. Erika Blacksher, the John B. Francis Chair in Bioethics and a professor at the University of Kansas Medical Center, concludes our series by defining democratic deliberation and how it’s related to health equity.
