Tóm tắt :

31 p. There is ample evidence of profound differences between the health status of various population groups in countries in the WHO European Region. Research has also shown that people’s health depends on determinants other than health or health systems factors, including socioeconomic and employment status, income, education,gender and ethnic origin. Population groups with a lower socioeconomic position, whether measured by income or education, are more disadvantaged in terms of health status than those with a higher position. Governments in a number of European countries have therefore put some effort into tackling this health divide. Many have adopted strategies, policies and plans to tackle inequities in health in recent years, either as an integral part of national health strategies or through public health programmes focused on those inequities. The main problem is that most strategies for reducing social inequities in health have never been implemented and thus we do not know their impact in terms of reducing social inequities in health. Secondly, it may be too early to evaluate the health effects of strategies actually implemented (e.g. in England), as it can take many years between a change in exposure and a change in health (for instance, the latency time for smoking is around 20 years). Thus the first critical issue is to establish whether action has actually reduced exposure.The Tenth Futures Forum focused on the experiences of, and put open questions to, participating European countries regarding their endeavours to steer towards more equity in health. The aim was to exchange and learn from experiences, to identify the knowledge gaps on ways of improving equity in health systems, to identify the role of senior health administrators in addressing inequities in health, to govern health systems towards more equity in health, and to promote future planning and cooperation in steering towards more equity in health systems in the European Region of WHO.
