Improving the Health and Wellbeing of the UK
September 30th 2010
London, UK
Much work is being undertaken to eradicate inequalities in health across the social divides. The more disadvantaged in the population are more likely to suffer health problems, with life expectancy in the wealthiest areas being several years higher than the poorest areas. How will the ongoing strategy in tackling wealth inequalities to provide a 'Fair Society, Healthy Lives' be maintained?Can collaborative working be the model to sustain prevention along with health promotion, and how can we quantify the cost-effectiveness of producing a healthier nation?
At Public Health: Promoting Health and the Challenges Ahead, expert speakers will discuss the delivery of public health initiatives and their impact on the the population. Analysis of the strategies most likely to produce the desired results will be explored, culminating in a panel debate where, undoubtedly, opposing views will be voiced.
