  32. COMMISSION ON SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH Sir Michael Marmot Chair of the Commission on Social Determinants of Health Professor of Epidemiology and Public Health, Royal Free and University College Medical School, London

  33. What are the social determinants of health? "The poor health of the poor, the social gradient in health within countries, and the marked health inequities between countries are caused by the unequal distribution of power, income, goods, and services, globally and nationally, the consequent unfairness in the immediate, visible circumstances of peoples lives – their access to health care, schools, and education, their conditions of work and leisure, their homes, communities, towns, or cities – and their chances of leading a flourishing life. This unequal distribution of health-damaging experiences is not in any sense a ‘natural’ phenomenon….Together, the structural determinants and conditions of daily life constitute the social determinants of health."

  34. Why treat people… then send them back to the conditions that made them sick?

  46. Why emphasize social determinants? • Social determinants of health have a direct impact on health • Social determinants predict the greatest proportion of health status variance (health inequity) • Social determinants of health structure health behaviours • Social determinants of health interact with each other to produce health
