The Health Gap: Achieving Social Justice in Public Health

Reducing health inequalities is a matter of social justice.
About this Event

Reducing health inequalities is a matter of social justice. Strategies must address the social gradient in health, and efforts should extend beyond healthcare to address the conditions in which people are born, grow, live, work, and age. This lecture argues economic circumstances, while important, are not the sole drivers of health inequalities, and closing the health gap will take evidence-based action across the whole of society.

A lecture by Professor Sir Michael Marmot
