Health equity is a just and fair opportunity accorded to each individual to attain their full health potential. In that, there is an absence of systematic disparities or social determinants arising from one's levels of income and education, food security, etc.

Roureen Phiri Landson calls Kitwe, Zambia home. Prior to joining GHC, Roureen co-founded The Research Institute to ensure equity and inclusiveness in health and development initiatives. She has also worked as a volunteer under the United Nations Relief and Works Agency and The International Research Institute. Roureen has also engaged in projects promoting health and literacy with the Centre for the Promotion of Literacy in Sub-Saharan Africa and USAID. When she isn’t working, Roureen enjoys planning, hiking, and painting.
