“…1 More work than ever is now devoted to identifying strategies beyond medical care to address urban health inequalities and to achieving health equality through action on social determinants of health (SDOH). Recommending and taking action on health inequalities inevitably leads to the general problem of knowledge translation, which refers to "the exchange, synthesis and ethically-sound application of knowledge-within a complex system of interactions among researchers and users-to accelerate the capture of the benefits of research .... through improved health, more effective services and products, and a strengthened health care system."…”

In this paper, we consider social forces that affect the processes of both knowledge production and knowledge translation in relation to urban health research. First, we briefly review our conceptual model, derived from a social-conflict framework, to outline how unequal power relations and health inequalities are causally linked. Second, we critically discuss ideological, political, and economic barriers that exist within academia that affect knowledge production related to urban health and health inequalities. Third, we broaden the scope of our analysis to examine how the ideological, political, and economic environment beyond the academy creates barriers to health equity policy making. We conclude with some key questions about the role that knowledge translation can possibly play in light of these constraints on research and policy for urban health.

In this essay, I borrow the idea of universal precautions from infection control and suggest that family physicians use a set of considerations, based on the mnemonic UNIVERSAL, to nurture cultural humility, enter a metaphoric "space-in-between" in cross-cultural encounters, and foster global fluency. These UNIVERSAL considerations I base on my experiences in global family medicine, attending to economically poor and socially marginalized patients in both international and domestic settings.
