15 The causes of the causes

16 Fairness at the heart of all policies. Health inequalities result from social inequalities – requires action on all the social determinants. Focusing solely on the most disadvantaged will not reduce inequalities sufficiently – action is needed across the social distribution.

17 Social determinants of health across the lifecourse

18 A.Give every child the best start in life B.Enable all children, young people and adults to maximise their capabilities and have control over their lives C.Create fair employment and good work for all D.Ensure healthy standard of living for all E.Create and develop healthy and sustainable places and communities F. Strengthen the role and impact of ill health prevention Fair Society: Healthy Lives: 6 Policy Objectives

19 The Commission on Social Determinants of Health (CSDH) – Closing the gap in a generation Strategic Review of Health Inequalities in England: The Marmot Review – Fair Society Healthy Lives Review of Social Determinants of Health and the Health Divide in the WHO Euro Region

20 Country clusters by level of policy response Cluster 1: Relatively positive and active response to health inequalities. –At least one national response to HIs or comprehensive regional HI policy responses. Cluster 2: Variable response to health inequalities. –No explicit national policy on HIs, but at least one explicit regional response or a number of other policies with some focus on health inequalities. Cluster 3: Relatively undeveloped response to health inequalities. –No focused national or regional responses to health inequalities, no explicit health inequality reduction targets (though there may be targeted actions on the social determinants of health).
