- Darryl Kickett is a Noongah Aboriginal man with whom I worked for many years at the Centre for Aboriginal Studies at Curtin University in Western Australia. At a time when very few Aboriginal people entered university studies, we were able to work with a team at that Centre to develop culturally appropriate courses that not only saw hundreds of Aboriginal graduate, but also demonstrated the…October 2020Postsecondary Education
- This episode of On the Evidence focuses on transition-age youth (ages 14 to 24) who have disabilities and must navigate a complex and fragmented system to access benefits and support services. Recent research suggests that it is possible to intervene with youth with disabilities and smooth the transition to adulthood, especially by providing well-designed, customized supports to specific…July 2020Services & Programs, Opportunity Youth
- Background: Continuing education is essential for healthcare workers. Education interventions can help to maintain and improve competency and confidence in the technical skills necessary to address adverse events. However, characteristics of the health provider such as age (related to more critical and reflexive attitude); sex (relationship with gender socialization), profession and work…March 2020School-Based Health Care
- The number of years spent in formal education is closely related to health outcomes, both amongst individuals and across populations. Equally, health status in early years and later in life affects our ability to participate in education and society. The main factor that determines both health and educational outcomes is socio-economic status. By investing in good quality, accessible education –…February 2020Early Childhood Education
- People with higher levels of education are more likely to be healthier and live longer. Healthy People 2030 focuses on providing high-quality educational opportunities for children and adolescents — and on helping them do well in school. Children from low-income families, children with disabilities, and children who routinely experience forms of social discrimination — like bullying — are more…January 2020Early Childhood Education, High School Graduation, Classism
- There is an increasing need for academic health centers (AHCs) to engage communities across their clinical, research, and educational missions. Although AHCs have a long-standing history of community service, a more comprehensive approach to working with communities is required to respond to shifts toward a population health paradigm, funder requirements for community engagement in research, and…June 2019Community-rooted/Participatory Research, School-Based Health Care
- Our work is based on the idea that health and education outcomes are intrinsically linked. We seek to improve these outcomes collectively and across multiple projects. We developed ETR’s Health Equity Framework to help us, and others, think about improving interrelated outcomes from multiple, overlapping perspectives.

- Adults with higher educational attainment live healthier and longer lives compared to their less educated peers. The disparities are large and widening. We posit that understanding the educational and macro-level contexts in which this association occurs is key to reducing health disparities and improving population health. In this paper, we briefly review and critically assess the current state…January 2018Postsecondary Education
- There is extensive research indicating a link between educational attainment (e.g., years of schooling or number of degrees obtained) and health indicators (e.g., life expectancy or death from disease). The effect is even intergenerational, meaning that the education of parents is linked to their children’s health and well-being. Disparities in education mirror disparities in health. Over the…January 2017Education
- Medical schools and teaching hospitals are addressing health and health care inequities across their research, education, and clinical missions, but these efforts aren’t always coordinated across the institution. In the absence of coordination (and formal evaluation), community health initiatives are not as efficient or effective as they could be. A lack of coordination also makes it difficult to…January 2016Community-rooted/Participatory Research, School-Based Health Care
