Privilege 101: Power, Privilege and Oppression in the Context of Health Equity

Approach: This workshop uses kindness, humour and critical reflection to explore ideas of privilege and oppression and their impact on health.

Privilege 101 is particularly designed for clinicians, health profession educators, health researchers, and people working in health policy.
