Tóm tắt :

“Leaving no one behind” is at the heart of the agenda of the Sustainable Development Goals, requiringthat health systems be vigilant to how interventions can be accessed equitably by all, includingpopulation subgroups that face exclusion. In the World Health Organization (WHO) South-East AsiaRegion, inequalities can be found across and within countries but there has been a growing commitmentto examining and starting to tackle them. Over the past decade in particular, WHO has been developingan armamentarium of tools to enable analysis of health inequalities and action on health equity. Toolsinclude the Health Equity Assessment Toolkit in built-in database and upload database editions, aswell as the Innov8 tool for reorientation of national health programmes. Countries across the regionhave engaged meaningfully in the development and application of these tools, in many cases aligningthem with, or including them as part of, ongoing efforts to examine inequities in population subgroupsdomestically. This paper reflects on these experiences in Bangladesh, India, Indonesia, Nepal, Sri Lankaand Thailand, where efforts have ranged from workshops to programme reorientation; the creation ofassemblies and conferences; and collation of evidence through collaborative research, reviews/synthesisand conferences. This promising start must be maintained and expanded, with greater emphasis onbuilding capacity for interpretation and use of evidence on inequalities in policy-making. This may befurther enhanced by the use of innovative mixed methodologies and interdisciplinary approaches torefine and contextualize evidence, with a concomitant shift in attention, developing solutions to redressinequities and anchor health reform within communities. There are many lessons to be learnt in thisregion, as well as mounting political and popular will for change.
