In collaboration with colleagues at King's College London, Collective Action for Race Equity in Health and Social Care (CARE-HSC) aims to address and dismantle structural factors that perpetuate racial discrimination and harassment within care systems. The work is funded by a Wellcome Discovery Award.

Past funded research projects:

Together with Sarah Hamed, Suruchi Thapar-Björkert and Beth Maina Ahlberg: 'Understanding racism in healthcare: Developing and implementing anti-racist strategies through shared knowledge production and evaluation’ funded by Vetenskapsrådet.

The research has been discussed at a webinars organised by the Equal opportunities board of Lund Medical Faculty https://www.med.lu.se/intramed/min_anstaellning/vaerdegrund_likabehandling_och_trakasserier/lika_moejligheter_samma_raettigheter and by the Swedish Medical Association https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NRyQMuXpA8g and on an edition (Särbehandling i vården – om rasism och minoritetsstress) of the long-running P1 radio program Kropp & Själ https://sverigesradio.se/avsnitt/1582449

A collaboration with the Universities of North Carolina and Jonköping explored teaching caring professions to recognise and undo the harms of racism.
