Our fall election series invites leading thinkers to reflect on key issues for health in the 2024 election.

This program will consider the intersection of the 2024 election and LGBTQ+ health. We will explore the sociopolitical forces that shape LGBTQ+ health and reflect on how public health can better engage with these forces to advance the health and well-being of LGBTQ+ populations.

For questions or accommodation requests please reach out to sphevent@bu.edu.
