FREE Hesburgh Lecture Series - Health is More Than Healthcare: Understanding the Social Determinant

NDCD's Annual Hesburgh Lecture - Free and Open to the Public
Health is More Than Healthcare:
Understanding the Social Determinants of Health
Lecturer: Dr. Bernie Nahlen, Director, Eck Institute for Global Health, University of Notre Dame
Good health depends on more than access to doctors and hospitals. Where we live, what we eat, the air we breathe, the jobs we hold, and the opportunities we’re given all play a critical role in shaping our health outcomes. This lecture explores the social, economic, and environmental conditions—known as the social determinants of health—that drive health disparities within and between communities.
