African Ambassadors understands that Healthcare disparity is a global crisis that affects people of all ages, races, and ethnicities. It is the difference in the quality and access to health care services between different groups. Healthcare disparities can be caused by a variety of factors, including:
- Social determinants of health: These are the social and economic conditions in which people live, learn, work, and play. They have a significant impact on people's health and well-being. For example, people who live in poverty or underserved communities are more likely to experience health care disparities.
- Discrimination: Discrimination can occur in healthcare settings in various ways, such as when patients are treated differently because of their race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, or other characteristics. Discrimination can lead to patients receiving lower-quality care or being denied care altogether..
- Lack of access to health care: Millions of people worldwide do not have access to essential health care services. This may be due to poverty, lack of insurance, or geographic isolation. Lack of access to health care can lead to preventable deaths and illnesse
Healthcare disparities have severe consequences for individuals and communities. They can lead to poorer health outcomes, shorter lifespans, and higher healthcare costs. Healthcare disparities also contribute to social and economic inequality. African Ambassadors is committed to fighting healthcare disparity around the world. We do this by:
- Raising awareness of health care disparities: We educate the public and policymakers about the causes and consequences of health care disparities.
