Abstract: Drawing from the experiences of Muslim patients and providers, this lecture will extend diversity, equity and inclusion conversations to the overlooked dimension of religious identity. Leveraging research data from 15+ years of community-engaged research, the talk will describe the ways in which Muslims are disadvantaged in health equity interventions and the effects of these disadvantages on health and professional outcomes. The talk will end with practical, ethical, and data-driven recommendations to enhance diversity, equity, and inclusion by attending to the religious dimensions of healthcare delivery.
