SXSW 2020
Data-Driven Strategies for Advancing Health Equity
Description:
It’s not hard to look at the data on health outcomes and identify stark disparities in race, gender, geography, and orientation. Disparities are everywhere. What is hard, but absolutely essential, is finding ways to use data to develop and guide programs to reduce those inequities. In this session, three national experts who work at the intersection of big data, health and racial inequity will look at what’s already being done, what questions remain unanswered, and where to go from here.
