The University of Michigan’s chapter of Partners in Health Engage is proud to host the inaugural Health Equity Gala, an evening dedicated to advancing awareness and collaboration in the fight for global health justice. As a student-led chapter of the internationally renowned Partners in Health organization, we are committed to advocating for equitable healthcare solutions, amplifying marginalized voices, and inspiring systemic change.This gala stems from a rich history of grassroots movements that recognize healthcare as a human right, not a privilege. Founded on the belief that every individual deserves access to quality healthcare regardless of socioeconomic status, our chapter has consistently worked to uphold this vision through advocacy, education, and service. The gala represents a new chapter in our mission: uniting campus organizations and community members around the shared goal of addressing critical global and public health challenges.The Health Equity Gala serves as a platform to spotlight the disparities in healthcare access, particularly in the context of an evolving political landscape where conservative policies may threaten progress in public health equity. By bringing together a diverse coalition of public health and global health organizations on campus, we aim to foster dialogue, share resources, and build actionable strategies to combat these disparities.We invite you to join us in celebrating the power of collective action and the potential for transformative change. Together, we can advocate for a more equitable world and ensure that health is prioritized as a universal human right. March 30th 7-9 PM at Union Pendleton  Register here: https://www.pihengageumich.org/health-equity-gala-registration
