“Healthcare must be reimagined to be part of a system of healing and justice in the country and around the world.” Recently we had an enlightening conversation with Rishi Manchanda MD MPH, Founder and CEO of HealthBegins, published author and Adjunct Associate Professor. Dr. Manchanda shared his journey and the powerful lessons he’s learned through his work in health justice. This conversation highlighted the intersection of health equity, justice, and community organizing, and how these principles can drive real change in healthcare systems.
