Partnering during the pandemic: Did COVID-19 redefine how we partner?

In celebration of 25 years of promoting health equity and social justice through partnerships with community and academic partners, CCPH is hosting a series of webinars highlighting partnerships and their power to change the conditions and environments in which people live, work, study, pray, and play. The initial webinar in the series will explore CCPH’s partnership with the Duke Clinical Research Institute and UNC-Center for Health Equity Research as part of the RADx-UP Coordination and Data Collection Center (CDCC). RADx-UP is a NIH-funded project which addresses COVID-19 testing disparities in underserved populations. This roundtable, featuring CCPH’s Executive Director and RADx-UP Principal Investigators, will provide insight into a partnership formed during an international public health crisis. Panelists will discuss the benefits and challenges of partnership building in a crisis, while also reflecting on lessons learned and emerging assets. (author abstract)
