Abstract
[Extract] The pursuit of health equity and social justice are often-stated core goals of global health practitioners, organizations and networks. However, the dynamic landscape of global health challenges and the historical and structural legacies of colonialism and imperialism mean that conventional approaches to knowledge production and sharing have often perpetuated, rather than reduced, health inequities. Institutional incentives have consciously and unconsciously driven knowledge production to occur in ways that create knowledge silos and perpetuate knowledge hierarchies.
