In the past thirty years, the United States has made remarkable progress in reducing barriers in access to health care faced by racial and ethnic minority Americans. Most minority Americans born in the 1950s have vivid memories of 'separate and unequal' health facilities. By the 1980s, overt and blatant barriers to care were uncommon. In spite of the progress achieved, recent studies continue to provide evidence that minority Americans experience differential access to health coverage and to some health procedures. To investigate these differentials, contributors to this volume were asked to examine the health care experiences of nonelderly Hispanics and African-Americans within a nationally representative data source: the 1987 National Medical Expenditure Survey. Through this effort, the authors document the extent to which barriers to access persist and provide insight on possible explanations for variations in access. This volume will provide policymakers, practitioners, and advocates with an objective base of important information to guide decision-making about health care policy.

The purpose of this guide is to help district leaders take on the challenge of ensuring that students have equitable access to excellent teachers. It shares some early lessons the Education Trust has learned from districts about the levers available to prioritize low-income students and students of color in teacher quality initiatives. The guide outlines a seven-stage process that can help leaders define their own challenges, explore underlying causes, and develop strategies to ensure all schools and students have equitable access to effective teachers.

Rural counties make up about 80 percent of the land area of the United States, but they contain less than 20 percent of the U.S. population. The relative sparseness of the population in rural areas is one of many factors that influence the health and well-being of rural Americans. Rural areas have histories, economies, and cultures that differ from those of cities and from one rural area to another. Understanding these differences is critical to taking steps to improve health and well-being in rural areas and to reduce health disparities among rural populations. To explore the impacts of economic, demographic, and social issues in rural communities and to learn about asset-based approaches to addressing the associated challenges, the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine held a workshop on June 13, 2017. This publication summarizes the presentations and discussions from the workshop.

Background: Inequity in health and access to healthcare is a longstanding issue that has serious consequences for the wellbeing of those who experience it. A disproportionate number of those affected belong to socially excluded communities who suffer poor access to various resources, including healthcare. Acknowledging ongoing gaps in achieving health for all, the World Health Organization (WHO) has proposed universal health coverage (UHC) as a key policy for enabling equitable access to healthcare. In this thesis, I explore and critique the dominant model of UHC and discuss its limitations in ensuring equitable access to healthcare. Methods: A mixed methods approach, consisting of an embedded research design (major qualitative stage nested with a minor quantitative study) was applied. The qualitative stage followed the grounded theory (GT) tradition of Charmaz, and the principles of GT along with those of ethnography are used during data collection and analysis to capture both processes and setting. The setting focused on two excluded communities in the south Indian state of Kerala -Indigenous communities and widows above the age of 60 living alone. Multiple methods of data collection, including in-depth interviews, focus group discussions and participant observations, were carried in two phases between 2018 and 2019 with members of both communities and key stakeholders in the healthcare system. For the quantitative analysis, multilevel mixed models were used to understand the differentials in access to treatment between various social classes in India and the ability of health insurance to improve access to treatment for major morbidities in two waves of the India Human Development Survey (IHDS) dataset. Findings: Efforts to address lack of access to healthcare did not take into account the intersectional nature of exclusion and inequity, focusing only on clinical measures and insurance coverage. Multiple factors at the macro, meso and micro levels combine to lead to the othering and exclusion of participants from various resources, including healthcare. Common threads between the three levels included power differentials between excluded communities and others and the lack of intersectionality in addressing exclusionary processes (e.g. Indigeneity framed as cause, social norms, medicalisation, candidacy). The quantitative findings confirm the role of social class in differential access to treatment and the limitations of health insurance in overcoming these disadvantages. Conclusion: This research demonstrates the need to move beyond the notion of a health system divorced from the broader sociocultural and political contexts if we are to address inequitable access to healthcare. Cultural safety that foregrounds power differentials and positions healthcare as aright offers a more comprehensive framework to achieve UHC in an equitable manner. Framing good health and access to healthcare as a right for all and addressing the power gaps will enable us to navigate the difficult terrain of inequity and achieve the goal of equitable healthcare within the context of a just society.

In today’s modern age where information is constantly being shared, intellectual property and protection remains a crucial aspect in economic development. Open access has emerged as a cutting-edge tool that allows writers and authors to share their work freely while still holding protection and security over it. With technology playing a crucial role in economic growth, open access practices could be a key contributor in the innovation and development of information and public policy. What researchers need is a comprehensive approach to the concept of open access practice, its foundations, and current status. Building Equitable Access to Knowledge Through Open Access Repositories provides emerging research exploring the theoretical and practical aspects of open access publishing practices in the digital age and applications within scientific and academic research. Featuring coverage on a broad range of topics such as copyright protection, social justice, and European Copyright Framework, this book is ideally designed for researchers, scientists, policymakers, librarians, IT specialists, authors, publishers, academicians, and students seeking current research on the advancement of intellectual property rights in today’s technologically driven world.
