CENTRIC LAB Information

Radical Infrastructure for Communal Healing. Centric Lab are prototyping ways to use health-based scientific evidence to support justice movements, surface and socialise non-western epistemologies and create language to articulate the health injustices felt by many racialised and marginalised communities.

We aim to do this by building open-access community tools, creating justice-led narratives and framings of health, and provide organisations with expertise and insights on health, communities, and place.
