Programmes

They are spaces that turn our research into community led programmes, where we have been able to directly apply rigours scientific methodology to health justice.

All programmes are stewarded by people with direct lived experience of the topic. This is part of working in solidarity with communities rather than simply collaborating with them. Each programme steward designs their own programme and then delivers it alongside people they have built years of trust with.
It is a process of "walking with" in solidarity.

This programme supports those that want to embed the intended WHO values which are as follows: Democracy, Equity, Sustainable development, and the ethical use of evidence from a community and lived experience perspective.
Resources have been developed for learning by all.

The mission of the project is to move towards the abolition of “Right to Pollute” policies and to facilitate healing pathways for communities impacted by air pollution. This project and study are meant to create a starting point for the abolition of the right to pollute policies, which are having a continual devastating effect on both planetary and human health.
We are running an 18 month project bringing together a team of academics, scientists, and policy experts. This group will collaborate with people experiencing the worst injustices of air pollution.
Centric Lab will run a series of workshops to co-create a symptom tracker and to collect information about people’s symptoms of ill-health. People local to Lambeth & Southward, London, and other select areas in the UK are involved in the project will lead decisions on how to use the resulting data and insights.
We will be using this information to create health reparations for communities affected by air pollution. This can be recommendations for specialised health care, as well as advocating for clean air alongside GP as part of healthcare.
This builds on our work of Right to Know, which enables people to discover how their health is affected by where they live.

This work aims to demonstrate the harm of the dominant, individualised, narrative of obesity. We present an alternative understanding that views obesity through a neuro-epidemiological, environmental and sociopolitical lens. This serves as an avenue for people who are experiencing obesity to understand their disease and explore potential methods of self-care, self-advocacy and safeguarding.

This program is aimed at practitioners who want to develop their understanding and implementation of health justice, and explore together how health practitioners can become forces for collective liberation. Health justice is a deep and expansive lens through which we can contribute to various interconnected struggles.

We are creating the time and space for a lived-experience led programme exploring and co-designing what do Trans & Gender Non-Binary communities need from the healthcare system, what would it look like holistically and communally? What would the programme look like and how will it fill knowledge gaps surrounding Trans & GNB identities - both scientifically, and from a lived experience, with a focus on racialised identities?

Indigenous and Land based cultures are under threat by the lack of systemic action to the dysregulation of our planetary ecosystems and by the continual expansion of capitalism and imperialism. This programme focuses on the various Imaginations and Knowledges Land-Kinned Peoples bring to environmental and health justice.

PAST PROGRAMMES

A 9 month peer-to-peer learning journey for people interested in addressing systemic challenges to create neighbourhoods that are life-sustaining and provide people and Nature with health, dignity, and justice. The purpose of this collective journey is to create the space and time for communities advocating for justice in their neighbourhoods to imagine, learn, and grow their own ecosystems.
