Description

Education as a social determinant of health has the power to improve health outcomes for communities across the world, but what happens when access continues to be an issue for some neighbourhoods and populations? Nicole Vick, Adjunct Professor, TEDx Speaker and Amazon Best Selling Author of Pushing Through: Finding The Light in Every Lesson, remains with the Public Health Insight Podcast to shift our discussion to focus on the disparities in access to education, the barrier of social exclusion and institutional racism in our academic institutions, and how these factors interact to impact the health of already marginalized communities. Share Your Thoughts With Us!Follow us on Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Facebook.
