What could one learn about healthcare needs by living with cannibals, sex workers and the ‘others’ that are parts of marginalized communities worldwide? Tapati's trajectory into public health policy was shaped by early life challenges growing up in India where she experienced first-hand what it meant to be marginalized. Pursuing a degree in social work and a Doctoral degree in public health policy, at Indiana University Tapati’s research reveals eye-opening insights and shares solutions to translate healthcare policy into implementable services effectively received by the communities they are designed to help.
