The Medical Inclusion and Diversity Art Program (MIDAP) aims
to achieve the following objectives:
a) Develop Recommendations: Establish analytical methods to
assess diversity in medical images, identify biases and disparities, and
propose effective solutions to address them.
b) Create an Online Repository: Build a free, publicly
available repository of medical images and illustrations to provide clinicians,
educators, researchers, healthcare administrators, and media professionals with
access to diverse and inclusive medical imagery.
c) Organize Training Programs: Conduct training programs for
clinicians, educators, and healthcare administrators that emphasize the
importance of diversity in medical visual representation and its role in
advancing equitable healthcare.
