Back

Dr Anusree Biswas Sasidharan (Bridging Change) and Lillian Ndawula (Ethnic Minorities in Canterbury) explore, with guests, the role of research in addressing health inequalities experienced by minoritised ethnic groups.

This series was funded by NIHR Applied Research Collaboration Kent, Surrey and Sussex and supported by Research Design Service South East and Clinical Research Network Kent, Surrey and Sussex. The views expressed are those of the author(s) and not necessarily those of the NHS, the NIHR or the Department of Health and Social Care.

Episode 1: What do community development organisations think?

In this first episode, guest host Dr Gary Hickey from the Agora Digital Centre at University of Southampton, quizzes Dr Anusree Biswas Sasidharan from Bridging Change, Lillian Ndawula from Ethnic Minorities in Canterbury and Patrick Nyikavaranda from Diversity Resource International. He asks them about their perceptions and experiences of health inequalities experienced by ethnic minority communities and their hopes for increasing the representation of people from ethnic minorities in both the participation and involvement in research.

Episode 2: What do funders think? A perspective from the National Institute for Health and Care Research

In this episode, Anusree and Lillian speak to Jeremy Taylor OBE, Director for Public Voice at the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR). Jeremy talks about the work the NIHR is doing to increase representation in research from people from ethnic minorities and the importance of engaging with communities and developing trust.

Episode 3: A perspective from the Health Research Authority

In this episode, Anusree and Lillian speak to Dr Matt Westmore, Chief Executive at Health Research Authority. They quiz Matt about the steps taken by Health Research Authority to increase representation in research and the important role that community organisations can play.

Episode 4:  A perspective from the Academy of Medical Sciences

In this episode Anusree and Lillian speak to Simon Denegri OBE, Executive Director at The Academy of Medical Sciences.  Simon speaks not only about what The Academy of Medical Sciences is doing to promote the Equality, Diversity and Inclusion agenda, but also developments in other countries.

Episode 5:  A researcher's perspective

In this episode Anusree and Lillian speak to Dr Ibidun Fakoya, Senior Research Fellow at King’s College London. Ibi shares her experiences of undertaking research with people from ethnic minority communities, emphasising the importance of developing relationships and the need to take a holistic approach to research rather than focussing on a single illness or condition.

Episode 6: Reflections

In this final episode Gary Hickey (Agora Digital Centre at University of Southampton) returns as guest host to ask Anusree, Lillian and Patrick to reflect on their podcast journey, what still concerns them and what positives they can take from the guests they have spoken to.
