Health Equity Education
Learning that fosters understanding of the impact of inequity and trauma on health access, experience, and outcomes, and strengthens fairness, inclusion, and culturally responsive care.
At The Christie Institute for Cancer Education, we believe in education which reaches deep into our communities – whether they be local or further afield. Our core values are rooted in providing opportunities within and beyond cancer education which puts people and patients at the heart of everything we do. Find out more about our work and how you can get involved.
