The Interdisciplinary Centre for Black Health addresses health disparities observed among people from Black communities, deficiencies in training for health professionals and research, and gaps in care and public health policy concerning them. This project is based on an interdisciplinary approach involving researchers from different fields of medicine, health sciences, psychology, education and sociology, and aims to reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D) in Black communities. The FIT (for Focus, inform, implicate, and transform) project will be implemented according to an innovative model aiming to Train (students from different fields) to Inform (religious leaders and Black community members from mosques and churches) in order to Transform (the lifestyle habits of those at high risk of T2D). We will work with pastors and imams, given the importance of their voice in the communities. This is a bilingual and culturally adapted T2D prevention program (PPD), focused on the real needs of Black communities. This PPD is an evidence-based intervention to prevent the risk of developing T2D through dietary and lifestyle changes that take into account the culinary cultures of Black communities, gradual increases in physical activity and weight loss. It is innovative in its educational and preventive approach, involving a cohort of students from different disciplines to address both the social determinants of health and the modifiable risk factors for T2D.
