Health inequities in Canada : intersectional frameworks and practices

Hankivsky, Olena. (Added Author).

Summary: "Unequal access to health care is a problem in Canada much studied by journalists, academics, and policy makers. There is a growing recognition that existing theories on, and approaches to, health inequities are limited in their ability to capture how these inequities are produced through changing, co-constituted, and intersecting effects of multiple forms of oppression.
