Strategic Research Initiative: Community Health

Projects in this theme seek to respond to health concerns that disproportionately affect marginalized or minoritized communities, including a lack of access to health care. Further, projects in this theme investigate questions that ask us to think about health epidemiology and prevention, particularly as it relates to our understanding of food, nutrition and their futures.
