health disparities research

Health disparities research studies differences in health outcomes and access to healthcare among various groups, often based on race, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, or geography. Its goal is to identify where inequalities exist, understand their causes, and develop strategies to promote fairness and improve health for all. By highlighting systemic issues and barriers, this research helps inform policies and practices that reduce disparities, ensuring that everyone has an equal opportunity to achieve good health regardless of their background or circumstances.
