Fairness FirstX (FFX) Talk
Bimonthly presentation by health equity researchers in northern Arizona
We believe that health equity research needs to be grounded in a message that connects with communities who are directly impacted by inequity and also who are taking action in advancing health equity.
Therefore, the Fairness FirstX (FFX) Talks provide an opportunity for health equity researchers to share their work with the broader community in an approachable way. Here, researchers talk about their research focus in a way that community partners and leaders can understand and connect with.
