In a blog published to the website of the New York City-based Commonwealth Fund and entitled “Advancing Health Equity: Learning from Other Countries,” Nason Maani, Ph.D., and Sandro Galea, M.D., M.P.H., DrPH, looked at experiences in Australia, Canada, France, Germany, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, and the United Kingdom, as leaders in those healthcare systems work to advance health equity and end systemic racism, just as U.S. healthcare system leaders are working to do.

Knox Professor, Boston University School of Public Health.
