Health Equity
Session Description
We will work in groups today to do analysis and storytelling as part of the health equity lab. As mentioned in class on Monday, this lab will focus less on technical details and more on storytelling and interpretation of indicators.

Before Class
Reflect
What are some tropes or conventions we use to talk about individual health? Collective health?
How might health disparities (at a neighborhood or population level) be connected to the many themes we’ve talked about in this class?
Is population health a planning issue? What role do practitioners and researchers in planning have for influencing how we think and act around health at the neighborhood level?
