The Roundtable on the Promotion of Health Equity of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine is convening a two day public workshop on how the COVID-19 pandemic has uniquely affected the Asian American/Pacific Islander/Native Hawaiian communities. The workshop will explore the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and hate crimes targeting Asian populations on their health and wellbeing, including vaccination and testing participation rates, mental health consequences, and lessons learned from the long history of bias against the AA/PI/NH communities. The “model minority” trope will also be discussed as this also affects health and wellbeing for AA/NH/PI communities. Ideas for improving the health and wellbeing of these communities will also be discussed.
