The AAMC, in partnership with the National Medical Association, convened nearly 100 thought leaders for the Action Collaborative for Black Men in Medicine inaugural Strategy Summit. Participants engaged in a series of strategy-development activities based on the initial work of the Action Collaborative.
These activities resulted in the development of over 40 strategies addressing the premedical, academic medicine, and sociocultural factors influencing the experience of Black men on the pathway to becoming a physician. This report focuses on the outputs of the Strategy Summit.
Considering the diversity of voices present at the Strategy Summit, our hope is that leaders — in fact, anyone interested in increasing the representation of Black men in medicine — will use this document as a blueprint for action. The strategies outlined, in most cases, can be applied to multiple contexts.
The Action Collaborative will use these strategies as a basis for informing its action agenda and identifying opportunities to partner with organizations, institutions, government, and the broader community.
