Webinar invitation:

Getting Serious About Health Equity: Systematic, Comprehensive Approaches to Leave No One Behind

The O'Neill Institute for National and Global Health Law, CEHURD, and the UCL Institute of Health Equity 

WHEN: Monday, January 28, 2019
TIME: 9:30 - 11:00 AM EST | Washington, D.C.

Even as important improvements have occurred in health across the world in the last decade, progress in reducing vast health disparities within countries has generally been far more limited. The UN Sustainable Development Goals pledged to leave no one behind--but will they? 
Without deliberate planning, cross-sectoral action, robust accountability, and inclusive governance to confront the structural causes of health equity, inequity will likely persist.

This webinar will launch a new framework for crafting health equity programs of action, and will explore systematic, inclusive approaches, across the health system and beyond, to improving health equity in the SDG era.

Speakers:
Michael Marmot, Director, UCL Institute of Health Equity, University College London
Anna Coates, Chief, Office for Equity, Gender, and Cultural Diversity, PAHO/WHO
Christine Brown, Head, WHO European Office for Investment for Health and Development
Moses Mulumba, Executive Director, Center for Health, Human Rights & Development
Eric Friedman, Global Health Justice Scholar, O’Neill Institute

Moderator:
Matthew Kavanagh, Director, Global Health Governance Initiative, O’Neill Institute
