About the Ubuntu Center:
The Ubuntu Center on Racism, Global Movements & Population Health Equity, Dornsife School of Public Health at Drexel University is a research and action center that unites diverse partners to generate and translate evidence, accelerate antiracism solutions, and transform the health of communities locally, nationally, and globally. The Center has four primary focus areas which include: 1) advancing transdisciplinary, antiracism population health research, training, and scholarship; 2) bridging relationships to build critical consciousness and power for health equity and racial justice; 3) expanding collective action for population health equity aligned with principles and practices of community organizing and social movements; and 4) strengthening capacity and sustainability to maximize our impact. Who we are and what we do embodies the South African principle "Ubuntu... I am because we are." We believe that by working collectively, we will achieve a just future, free from systems of oppression, full of new possibilities through bold, collective action, and an equitable world in which all individuals and communities are healthy and thrive.
About the ISR Project:
The ISR project intends to synthesize and build on existing research to clearly illuminate the historical roots of structural racism in the healthcare system and the modern-day structures, policies, and institutional practices that have resulted in and perpetuated structural racism and a culture of white supremacy. The program's goals are to: 1) synthesize, develop and conduct research that illuminates specific structures that perpetuate structural racism in the healthcare system; 2) translate findings and develop communications strategies that highlight the magnitude of structural racism for healthcare system leaders and other key stakeholders; and 3) build accountability and agency for historically and systemically marginalized racial populations to lead structural-change efforts in the healthcare system, centering the participation of these populations in accountability structures and in building agency to exert power.
