Covid-19 and the social determinants of health inequalities: Reflections on ethical leadership for health equity and a socially just recovery.

In this 2021 lecture on Health Equity, Dr Dlamini will highlight the scientific evidence on COVID-19 and the social determinants of health [inequalities], and their intersection with gender, race and class disparities in South Africa.  As a trailblazer and role model, Dr Dlamini will reflect on the imperative of ethical leadership at all levels of society. She will challenge government, academics and civil society at large to confront health inequities, and the imbalances in power and resources that mitigate against equity. Dr Dlamini will make the case for strategies to ensure a socially just post-pandemic recovery in South Africa.
