Focusing in on life course processes to understand
how racism patterns ethnic inequities in health

Laia Becares

Professor, King's College London

Ethnic inequalities in health are entrenched and persistent in the UK and elsewhere.

This seminar explores the role of racism, experienced over the life course, in structuring ethnic inequalities in health.

Anchored around key tenets of life course theory, this presentation will discuss findings from multiple studies that centre racism as the root cause of ethnic inequalities, exploring life course mechanisms that pattern stark ethnic inequities in later life.
