The Boston Congress of Public Health (BCPH) is democratizing participation in public health.

History

Established in August 2021 by Co-CEOs Dr. Candice Carpenter and Dr. Circe Gray Le Compte, BCPH’s mission, vision, and activities were crystalized in Fall 2021 by a cohort of public health advocates deeply passionate about public health, social justice, and health equity. Representing Harvard and Oxford alumni, physicians, scientists, researchers, consultants, and practitioners of public health, BCPH Founders included Penny Sun, Simon Morgan, Dr. Hannah Nazri, Dr. Isioma Okolo, Dr. Jessica Huang, Dr. Monty Ghosh, Kim Harmon, Brian Shim, and Alice Colescu.[1]

Mission

The mission of BCPH is to democratize public health through the lens of social justice. Democratize is defined as:
● equitable power amongst various stakeholders, productive partnerships, new school academia,
● equitable voices,
● equitable distribution of resources,
● equitable pricing,
● intersectional engagement – varying social class, nationality, sexuality, gender identity.[2]

Vision

Transcending the traditional boundaries of academia and medicine, the Boston Congress of Public Health (BCPH) supports emerging and established thought leaders, researchers, and advocates committed to social justice and health equity, and democratizes access to evidence-based public health thought.[3]

Values

● Diversity ● Inclusion ● Social Justice ● Health Equity ● Cultural Competence ● Multidisciplinarity
