Interprofessional Practice and Education
Introduction
Anti-racism is a growing and very important area of academic interest. Currently, there is little research to be found about IPE's place in anti-racism efforts, but we hope this guide will help inspire future research and innovation at the University of Michigan.
If you're aware of additional resources, please share them with us! Email suggestions to THL-IPE-Team@umich.edu and we'll add them to this page.
