or a gender minority.

This funding is geared toward studies about “upstream” causes of health inequities, such as the systems, structures, laws, policies, norms, and practices that determine the distribution of resources and opportunities, which in turn influence individuals’ options and behaviors. Research should center on the needs and experiences of communities exhibiting the greatest health burdens and be motivated by real-world priorities. It should be able to inform a specific course of action and/or establish beneficial practices, not stop at characterizing or documenting the extent of a problem.

While we will consider research on various aspects of health equity, we prioritize studies of interventions that are designed to reduce race-based disparities (e.g., by confronting a root cause of disparities or targeting benefits to those experiencing the greatest burdens). RWJF is particularly interested in strategies focused on developing healthy and equitable communities; supporting the needs of children, families, and caregivers; and fostering alignment among health care, public health, and social service systems.

简介及目的

“行动证据”优先开展研究，评估有可能抵消结构性和系统性种族主义危害并改善健康、福祉和公平结果的具体干预措施(例如，政策、项目、实践)。我们对种族平等的关注意味着，我们既关注结构性种族主义对有色人种和社区(如黑人、拉丁裔/黑人/黑人、土著、亚洲人、太平洋岛民和其他种族和民族)的健康和福祉的直接影响，也关注种族主义与其他形式的边缘化(如低收入、移民、残疾或LGBTQ+)交织的方式或者是少数性别。

这项资金用于研究卫生不平等的“上游”原因，如决定资源和机会分配的系统、结构、法律、政策、规范和实践，这些资源和机会的分配反过来又影响个人的选择和行为。研究应以卫生负担最大的社区的需求和经验为中心，并以现实世界的优先事项为动力。它应该能够告知具体的行动方针和/或建立有益的做法，而不是止步于描述或记录问题的程度。

虽然我们将考虑就卫生公平的各个方面进行研究，但我们将优先研究旨在减少基于种族的差异的干预措施(例如，正视差异的根本原因或将福利针对负担最重的人)。卢旺达妇女联合会特别关心以发展健康和公平社区为重点的战略;支持儿童、家庭和照顾者的需求;促进卫生保健、公共卫生和社会服务系统之间的协调。
