Health Equity Challenges
The 100 Day Health Equity Challenge workshop
Over a year ago we launched the Suffolk and North East Essex 100 Day Challenge to drive health equity across our ICS. We asked our colleagues from our partner organisations to take up the challenge through participating in our half-day online workshops around health equity.
The 100 Day Health Equity Workshop
Described alternately as “thought provoking” and “by far one of the best courses I have ever done,” our workshops have supported participants from more than 32 organisations so far to think about how they can contribute to improved health equity.
Through interactive exercises, conversations with people with lived experiences and delivered through various online platforms we provide participants with the opportunity to explore how and why we need to urgently address inequalities in health and care, and to consider the concepts of health equity and justice. It builds on the outcome-based approach embedded in our ICS and how we can adopt the concepts of awareness, assessment, allyship and accountability to take forward health equity.
The results are in
Participants taking up the challenge share what they / or their organisations are doing as part of this growing movement. And like the much-loved sunflower, which when nurtured can grow tall, the 100 day challenge thrives on individual action to achieve collective system progress towards improved health equity.
