,- Acknowledgement of poverty and genocide as state violence

Structural violence - ANSWERS-"Structural violence is one way of describing social
arrangements that put individuals and populations in harm's way... The
arrangements are structural because they are EMBEDDED IN THE POLITICAL AND
ECONOMIC ORGANIZATION of our social world; they are violent because they
cause injury to people"
- Farmer et al. 2006
Structural vulnerability - ANSWERS-The risk that an individual experiences as a
result of structural violence, including their location in multiple socio economic
hierarchies. Structural vulnerability is not caused by, nor can it be repaired solely
by, individual agency or behaviors
Structural competency - ANSWERS-"A shift in medical education... toward
attention to forces that influence health outcomes at levels above individual
interactions" - Metzl and Hansen 2014
The capacity for health professionals to recognize and respond to health and
illness as the downstream effects of broad social, political, and economic
structures
Develop trainees' capacity in the following five areas:
1. Recognizing the influences of structures on patient health
, 2. Recognizing the influences of structures on the practice of healthcare
3. Responding to the influences of structures in the clinic
4. Responding to the influences of structures beyond the clinic
5. Structural humility- Building on cultural humility
Structural humility - ANSWERS-Structural humility cautions providers against
making assumptions about the role of structures of patients' lives, instead
encouraging collaboration with patients and communities in developing
understanding of and responses to structural vulnerability
- Based on talk by Helena Hansen, April 2015
Naturalizing inequality - ANSWERS-The sometimes subtle, sometimes explicit,
ways that structural violence is overlooked
Often through claims of cultural difference, behavioral shortcomings, or racial
categories... which distract from the structural causes of harm
- Naturalizing inequality -> "just the way it is"
Operates through implicit frameworks (focusing on any of the following INSTEAD
of the influence of structures):
- Culture
- Individual behavior/choices
- Biology/ genetics
