Empowering Communities Through University Partnerships in Public Heath
Health providers often take a top-down approach, ‘preaching’ to families about how they should live more healthy lives and ignoring their everyday realities. This MRC-funded project is piloting a new approach to university and community partnerships in public health.
Our interdisciplinary team from education and public health is setting out to explore how universities can contribute directly to transforming attitudes towards marginalised communities. Bringing together two institutes of medicine at Tribhuvan University in Nepal and the University of Santo Tomas in the Philippines – the project draws on participatory and ethnographic methods to share beliefs and co-construct knowledge around food and nutrition
