Approaches to Critical Race Theory in addressing discrimination and institutional racism in the NHS

Activity: Academic Talks or Presentations › Conference Presentation › Research

Description

The narrative inquiry and exploration of racial discrimination faced by African and Asian descent in the National Health Service (NHS). The approaches and application of Critical Race Theory (CRT) in addressing this discrimination and institutional racism within the NHS.

Critical Race Theory (CRT) offers a comprehensive framework for addressing discrimination and institutional racism in the NHS. This theory, which originated in the legal field, examines the intersections of race, law, and power, and has been increasingly applied in various sectors, including healthcare. Applying CRT in the context of the NHS involves several key approaches to identify, analyse, and combat systemic inequities affecting healthcare professionals and patients of African and Asian descent.
