Listen to Dr Rohan Mehra, RCP clinical education fellow, (Infectious diseases/microbiology SPR) and Professor Habib Naqvi as they highlight health inequalities that exist due to race and what you can do to improve this situation. Sadly, racism is still pervasive in society and healthcare is not immune from this and needs urgently addressed. They explore some of the inequalities that exist due to race, how they need to be tackled and what you can do in your daily practice to try and address these ongoing  challenges.

Professor Habib Naqviis Chief Executive of the NHS Race and Health Observatory in the UK, which works to identify and tackle ethnic inequalities in healthcare by facilitating evidence, making health policy recommendations, and enabling long-term transformational change. Habib has worked in healthcare for 25 years, he’s spoken and written widely on health equity and was awarded an MBE in the 2019 Queen’s Birthday Honours for services to equality and diversity in the NHS. Habib is listed in the Health Service Journal’s ‘100 most influential people in health’.
