The Centre for Research on Health Equity and Social Inclusion (CRHESI) is an interdisciplinary, collaborative initiative led by the Faculty of Health Sciences at Western University.
The concepts of health equity and social inclusion cut across the work of many faculties and community service organizations within Western University and the London Not-for-Profit-Sector respectively. CRHESI strives to provide a forum for research-enabled, synergistic and catalytic change for London and surrounding areas.
Faculty and students at Western University have a strong tradition of research with and for people who have experienced vulnerability or marginalization. The Centre is supported by a range of community and university partners.
