Identifying health research and knowledge mobilization priorities for promoting health equity in Canada's youth
FY 2023-24
Summary
Health equity means that all youth have a fair opportunity to be as healthy as possible. However, inequities in health and healthcare persist and have been a public health challenge for decades. This project will explore youth experiences of health in/equity and identify priority areas for research and action. We will use a series of online focus groups with youth and discussion workshops with decision makers, service providers, and parents/caregivers. The results of the project will create an agenda for moving knowledge to action and for planning future research to address youth health equity in Canada.
