 DE?\n\nSTRIDE is a collaborative research initiative aimed at identifying

 ities driven by racism and structural discrimination using quantitative an
 d qualitative methods. The STRIDE Consortium examines health equity improv
 ements across four diverse settings in Bolivia\, Brazil\, Kenya\, and Nepa
 l\, with each study led by local in-country research partners.\n\nThis ini
 tiative is informed by research grounded in the Lancet Commission on Racis
 m\, Structural Discrimination and Global Health\, which sought to establis
 h the evidence base for understanding how racism operates as a fundamental
  determinant of health.\n\nMeet STRIDE's international partners:\n\n\n	\n		Cr
