Although this inequality which affects some groups of students unfairly, has been recognised over the last 2 decades, it remains a significant issue.</p> <p>This scoping review explores the causes and contributors in relation to undergraduate medical education. Using thematic analysis, the authors present the case for tackling the disparity in education and training. There are evidence-based solutions for individuals, organisations and at a societal level. The recommendations from this review will be discussed and debated in the series of workshops, as part of the <em>‘Bridging the Gap’</em> series from the Alliance for Tackling Inequalities in Health, chaired by the British Association of Physicians of Indian origin. The output of the consensus-building workshops and thematic synthesis with the accompanying qualitative research will be presented in the final report due in 2021.</p>}, number={3}, journal={Sushruta Journal of Health Policy & Opinion}, author={Dave, Subodh and Gupta, Abhishek and Rishi, Natasha and Gulati, Radhika and Verma, Shreya and Shankar, Rohit and Khan, Nagina and Chakravorty, Indranil}, year={2020}, month={Nov.}, pages={1–10} }
