Presentation

As part of the 2022 IUHPE World Conference, the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) co-developed a workshop with representatives from the National Collaborating Centre for Healthy Public Policy (NCCHPP), the Finnish Institute for Health and Welfare, the Finnish Ministry of Social Affairs and Health, the What Works Centre for Wellbeing, and Statistics Canada. This session offered an opportunity for wellbeing budgeting to be discussed with an international audience, to increase awareness of wellbeing budgeting within and outside of the public health sector, and to highlight the importance of the public health sector’s role within this initiative.

 

Dans le cadre de la conférence mondiale de l’UIPES en 2022, l’Agence de la santé publique du Canada (ASPC) a organisé un atelier avec des représentants du Centre de collaboration nationale sur les politiques publiques et la santé (CCNPPS), de l’Institut finlandais pour la santé et le bien-être, du ministère finlandais des Affaires sociales et de la Santé, du What Works Centre for Wellbeing et de Statistique Canada. Cet atelier a permis de discuter de la budgétisation liée au bien-être avec un public international, d’accroître la sensibilisation au budget du bien-être au sein et en dehors du secteur de la santé publique et de souligner l’importance du rôle du secteur de la santé publique dans le cadre de cette initiative.

Presentation

This IUHPE Research Report Series funded by the Department of Health of England and sponsored by the IUHPE.
The aim of this project was to identify indicators of living conditions and social position amongst women of child‐bearing age in very poor ruralities. Field visits were undertaken in rural communities in India, Haiti and Ghana, where expert Reference Groups were consulted, key informant interviews were conducted, focus group discussions were held, and observations were made. 
The report makes suggestions for aspects of living conditions and determinants of social position that might be measured in survey research and in surveillance systems so that the social determinants of health (SDH) relevant in very poor ruralities can be monitored and used in public health work. 
This study is exploratory, meant as a stepping stone to further work in research programme Social Determinants of Health in Very Poor Ruralities.

 

Réduire les Inégalités sociales de Santé en France (Reducing social inequalities in health)

Author

French national institute for prevention and health education (Inpes)

Year

2010

Presentation

The IUHPE has collaborated towards the development of a publication of the French Institute for Prevention and Health Education (Inpes.) This publication, which was drafted with the contribution of around 50 renowned experts, is a guide for action collecting national and international experiences aimed at reducing social inequalities in health. Its objective is to provide readers with scientifically valid knowledge and evaluated best practices which project managers can draw from.
The publication is part of a larger project aimed at the development of health promotion strategies to reduce social inequalities in health in France. The first step of this initiative consisted in the organization of an international session dedicated to this topic at the French Annual Conference on Prevention in 2008.
The results of this research will be widely disseminated at the 4th International Symposium of Local and Regional Health Programs (PLRS - Ottawa, 27-30 June 2011) and at the French Annual Conference on Prevention organized by Inpes (Journées de la Prevention - Paris 19-20 May 2011).
