Decolonising the Medical Curriculum with Structure and the Clinic

Rini speaks to two of our final year KCL medical students Natasha Chilambo and Nivethitha Ganapathiram (recently qualified doctors) about why they set up Structure and the Clinic.

Together in this short podcast, they cover knowledge, power, epistemic injustice in the curriculum and clinical practice, how biomedical reductionism is implicated in the coloniality of Western medicine, why diversification is not the same as decolonising, politics in medicine with a big and little P and what we can do as medical educators!
