Innovation – PPDG

HEALTH EQUITY

An innovative approach to identifying key impediments to growth and progress in African-American communities and, most importantly, to generate solutions that align with the culture to ensure better outcomes. African American communities have been particularly hard hit by the coronavirus pandemic and require tailored solutions, specifically designed to take root and deliver needed results.

Culture Pulse was created in response to a growing number of conversations with leaders across the Life Sciences Industry who were in need of the following:

A value-add supporting existing management processes and procedures for education, studies, clinical trials, engagements with diverse segments (domestic and global).

A knowledge transfer of best-in-class cultural competency for clinical science and research processes and procedures which engage diverse segments.

Capacity building within the enterprise within the science and research processes and procedures which engage diverse segments (a long-standing void).

Health Footprint of the Pandemic: The 4th Wave

Johns Hopkins experts in global public health, infectious disease, and emergency preparedness have been at the forefront of the international response to COVID-19.

MULTICULTURAL
There is a diversity explosion in America. Before the middle of this century, one out of every two Americans will be a person of color or a person of color who speaks Spanish.

HEALTH EQUITY
Unparalleled, unprecedented, irreversible, dramatic demographic shifts demand a departure from multicultural-healthcare- marketing-business-as-usual in a intensely competitive environment.

MEASURABLE & SUSTAINABLE OUTCOMES
Connecting with communities of color is the new frontier for organic growth in the healthcare industry.
