Achieving health equity requires creative approaches that go beyond traditional clinical interventions. A growing number of funders are turning to storytelling as an innovative tool to promote health equity. This webinar examined how digital storytelling practices are being used to improve health outcomes, influence decision-makers, and amplify the voices of vulnerable communities. Learn how funders, health advocates, and community leaders are leveraging personal stories to illustrate the impact of disparities and shift the narrative about health equity. Speakers included: Jeroan Allison of the University of Massachusetts Medical School, Jesse Beason of Northwest Health Foundation, Scott Cook of Finding Answers: Disparities Research for Change, and Abbie Zahler of International Community Health Services.
