A Community of Practice
Fostering Innovation via A Multisectoral and Participatory Approach
Health Equity Initiative is committed to building and sustaining a multisectoral community that brings together community leaders and professionals who work on a variety of efforts and topics. We believe in evidence-based solutions as well as the integration of research and practice. We are professionals and concerned citizens from different fields and communities, ALL coming together in support of health equity. We hope you will take advantage of our multisectoral approach to connect with individuals from different professions and communities, so that you can share resources and input on tackling health inequities in your community, city, or country. Since complex social problems require sophisticated tools, we feel that several questions still need to be addressed and should inform the development of innovative solutions and resources for health equity. These may include:
We invite you to explore these and many other questions and the resources Health Equity Initiative has developed, and to establish partnerships with other HEI members and organizations on these and other topics. HEI's team members have significant experience across research, practice, and policy (both through HEI and the many other affiliations of our team members) and is always available to discuss participation in specific member-led efforts of mutual interest.
We invite you to explore these and many other questions and the resources Health Equity Initiative has developed.

Since complex social problems require sophisticated tools, we feel that several questions still need to be addressed and should inform the development of innovative solutions and resources for health equity. These may include:
- What are key determinants of behavior, and intermediate steps to behavior adoption and maintenance among different communities and professionals?
- What are some of the capacity building and training needs among professionals, organizations, and community leaders/communities that seek to advance their work in support of health equity?
- What are some of the lessons learned and success factors from different models for community mobilization and citizen engagement?
