Mind The DisruptionAuthor: National Collaborating Centre for Determinants of Health
Mind the Disruption is a show about people who refuse to accept things as they are. It's about people pushing for better health for all. It's about people like us who have a deep desire to build a healthier, more just world. On Mind the Disruption, a podcast by the National Collaborating Centre for Determinants of Health (NCCDH), youll hear the stories of people who have disrupted the usual ways of doing things in their organizations, communities, and society in pursuit of better health for all. In weaving together interviews with community organizers, public health practitioners, researchers and more, we ask the question: what does it look like to challenge the status quo for health equity?
