Transforming Health Policy

Drawing on the expertise of teams of historians, lawyers, sociologists, nurses, and public health scholars, The HIP Lab works to inform and design policy and health interventions that learn from the success and failures of the past, and uncover the root causes of inequities.

These causes often lie in the historical legacies of policies that were deliberately designed to benefit some people over others. Our goal is to challenge this ideology and change the way health policy itself is written and designed.
