项目摘要

Governmental and nongovernmental organizations in the US are building innovative public/private partnerships to improve global health disparities reduction research. The Sullivan Alliance to Transform the Health Professions (SA) is taking action to build collaboration with the University of the West Indies (UWl). The partnership. The United States of America (US)-Caribbean Alliance for Health Disparities Research (USCAHDR), will implement epidemiological research to explore how determinants of health: historyancestry, health practices, and life styles and health disparities differ and are similar among African populations in the US and the Caribbean. Three specific aims have been identified to accomplish this goal: (1) build a synergistic partnership comprised of the SA, UWl, the Caribbean Heath Research Council, and the National Health Museum to conduct research on the role of social determinants in determining health status and health outcomes among Caribbean and US populations; (2) enhance the professional development of US-Caribbean researchers/scientists; and (3) establish a global health disparities E-Museum that adds content-value to UWI's broadband e-platforms for disseminating USCAHDR research and educational materials in the US and the Caribbean. The program will advance fundamental understanding of persistent health disparities in the US and the Caribbean, develop a multidisciplinary team of experts interested in health disparities reduction research, and create culturally competent educational outreach communication tools for the US and the Caribbean.

美国的政府和非政府组织正在建立创新的公共/私人改善全球健康差异研究的合作伙伴关系。沙利文联盟改变了卫生专业（SA）正在采取行动与西印度大学（UWL）建立合作。伙伴关系。美利坚合众国（美国） - 卡里比亚人的健康差异研究（USCAHDR），将实施流行病学研究，以探讨健康的决定因素：历史记录，健康实践，生活方式和健康差异有所不同，非洲人相似美国和加勒比海人口。已经确定了三个具体目标以实现这一目标：（1）建立由SA，UWL，加勒比海健康研究委员会和国家卫生博物馆，以研究社会决定因素在确定健康中的作用加勒比和美国人口中的状况和健康成果；（2）增强专业人士美国加勒比海研究人员/科学家的发展；（3）建立全球健康差异E-Museum 这为UWI的宽带电子平台增加了内容值，以传播USCAHDR研究和美国和加勒比海的教育材料。该计划将提高对美国和加勒比海的持续健康差异，建立了一个多学科的专家团队对减少健康差异的研究感兴趣，并创建具有文化胜任的教育外展美国和加勒比海的交流工具。
