The Role of Qualitative Research in Health Equity

Qualitative research is pivotal in health equity work as it centers the voices of historically marginalized communities, enabling researchers to understand the depth of disparities they face. It provides context to quantitative data, illustrating how systemic issues like racism impact individuals' health and access to care. By using frameworks such as critical race feminism, researchers can design studies that genuinely reflect participants' experiences and challenges. This qualitative approach allows for a deeper exploration of the intersectionality inherent in health disparities, ultimately leading to more informed and effective interventions.
