A cross-sectional study used data from Sample 1 of the 2015 National School Health Survey. The prevalence of perceived racial discrimination and its association with individual, socioeconomic, health and school factors were analyzed using prevalence ratios (PR) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Multivariate analysis was performed using Poisson regression, accounting for sample weights from the complex survey design. Of 102,302 valid responses, 2333 students reported experiencing racial discrimination, corresponding to a prevalence of 2.58% (95% CI: 2.40-2.78). In multivariate analysis, perceived racial discrimination was associated significantly with being male (PR 1.69; 95% CI: 1.40-2.04), Black (PR 7.39; 95% CI: 5.49-9.96), Brown (PR 2.07; 95% CI: 1.53-2.80) or Indigenous (PR 4.95; 95% CI: 3.32-7.38); working (PR 1.48; 95% CI: 1.19-1.85); having a mother with no schooling (PR 1.74; 95% CI: 1.25-2.42); reporting frequent loneliness (PR 2.17; 95% CI: 1.67-2.81) and expecting to complete only high school (PR 1.50; 95% CI: 1.24-1.83). Results indicate that perceived racial discrimination among Brazilian adolescents is influenced by gender, socioeconomic status and psychosocial factors, highlighting the need for structural interventions to reduce discrimination in schools.</p>","PeriodicalId":46805,"journal":{"name":"Global Health Promotion","volume":" ","pages":"17579759261469530"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2026-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148876190","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite growing efforts to decolonize Global Health, epistemic injustices continue to undermine the field. We argue that GN-ECRs need to critically engage with our roles to reduce epistemic injustices in Global Health. While we benefit from access to resources and platforms within the Global Health system, our authority within Global North academic hierarchies remains limited. Referring to the stages of awareness, deliberation and action, we outline how GN-ECRs must balance their roles at the intersection of privilege and constraint, and take responsibility for identifying feasible leverage points within existing structures. While the pursuit of equity and inclusivity is challenging and imperfect, each actor, including GN-ECRs, has a responsibility to contribute to a more just, inclusive and impactful system. By framing epistemic injustice through a consequentialist-positionality lens, this perspective offers a practical methodological tool for more equitable and effective Global Health research.</p>","PeriodicalId":46805,"journal":{"name":"Global Health Promotion","volume":" ","pages":"17579759261456705"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2026-07-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148594097","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Social factors and the availability and prices of healthy and unhealthy products often restrict the ability to follow a healthy diet. Food companies have a role in facilitating access to nutritious products, and policies should be in place to regulate the process.

Although there is disagreement among scholars about the use of the term 'decolonial' due to its usage by anti-democratic forces, it has become a buzzword in funding and scholarship in the Global North. Notwithstanding this disagreement, DGH claims to aim for a more inclusive health system, easy access for marginalised communities, equality and equity for women, minorities and low-economic classes, and the collusion of global health to include humans and non-humans in novel ways of thinking about holistic healthcare. The Eurocentric narrative of DGH by the Global North rooted in colonialism and violence is often followed blindly by the Global South countries, making the goals of equal access to healthcare - one of the primary United Nations Sustainable Development Goals - a distant dream. This paper critically analyses DGH and introduces a multidimensional policy framework for health called 'polysectionality', diversifying the ambit of DGH underlining equal access to health for all by breaking the North-South binary.
