The pursuit of equity is central to all we do.
关于我们
The Fran?ois-Xavier Bagnoud Center for Health and Human Rights (FXB Center) is the world’s first University-based center dedicated to the inextricable link between health and human rights. Fran?ois-Xavier, son of the Center’s founder Albina du Boisrouvray, tragically lost his life while on a helicopter rescue mission in 1986. Endowing the Center in 1993 with the support of the FXB Foundation, Albina sought to perpetuate the values, generosity, and compassion that motivated Fran?ois-Xavier, who strove especially to protect children. The Center’s founding premise was advanced by founding director Jonathan Mann and strongly supported by then-Dean of the Harvard School of Public Health, Harvey Fineberg. The FXB Center champions the rights and dignity of every individual, with special attention to children, the most vulnerable. The FXB Center, which is University-wide, employs interdisciplinary approaches to such complex problems as poverty, forced migration, climate disruption, oppression, racism, bigotry, discrimination and inequity. By protecting fundamental human rights, the FXB Center aims ultimately to improve the physical, mental, and social well-being of individuals and populations.

Honored to receive this award from the Harvard Kennedy School! Now more than ever, we need leaders who can bridge research, policy, and real-world experience to drive meaningful change. Tackling today’s most pressing challenges requires informed action, collaboration, and a commitment to progress. Our work is still valuable—and we’re still here doing the work. With this support, I’m continuing my dissertation research on sleep and environmental health—using Fitbit data and actigraphy devices to examine how indoor environmental exposures and daily stressors shape sleep quality and regularity. #SleepHealth #PublicHealth #WeStillHere #LeadershipInScience
?? Congratulations to FXB student affiliate Taylor J. Robinson, MPH, for being one of the recipients of Social Equity and Health Equity stipend funding awarded by Harvard Kennedy School’s Angelopoulos Professor of Public Policy Marcella Alsan and the Health Inequality Lab at the Malcolm Wiener Center for Social Policy at Harvard Kennedy School to support PhD students' dissertation projects on social equity or #health equity! “The Ph.D. students at Harvard are one of its core strengths—they teach college and masters students, push faculty to stay current, and build connections across professors, departments, and schools,” Alsan said. Taylor's research investigates the systemic inequities that perpetuate sleep health disparities. Read more: https://lnkd.in/ecDG-pQ7
