Campaign Against Racism Chapters

The EqualHealth Campaign Against Racism works to dismantle structural racism and its effects on health around the world by supporting local actions, efforts, and networks which aim to improve the health and lives of those most affected by racism, because racism kills.

Program Vision The Campaign Against Racism is organized to uncover the historical connections between racism and capitalism to radically imagine a future in which sociocultural, political and economic systems work towards health equity, rather than against it. We employ tactics of formalized reflection on the role of racial capitalism in each chapter’s work and experience.

Program Model The CAR is a network of chapters. Each chapter declares a strategic goal for their direct community and commits to be a part of the collective campaign. Chapters engage together sharing success stories and challenges, participating in community organizing training, and building relationships with organizers from around the world. The CAR leadership team offers resources and support to chapters individually to ensure that each chapter reaches their goals.Community organizers provide partnership and support to each chapter and collaborate to build collective consciousness around the movement for health equity. In its first year, 250 active members and 1,500 health professionals and allies engaged through various CAR actions.
