Pilot project related to reducing health inequalities: building expertise and evaluation of actions

The UK Health Forum (UKHF) established a health inequalities consortium, funded by EU´s DG Santé for 3 years. Along with gathering evidence for effective actions to address individual and multiple risk factors across the social gradient, there is a need to develop a range of case studies to demonstrate and evaluate effective action. Policy and advocacy skills combined with excellent resource sharing will help translate knowledge into policy and practice and ensure coherence with EU, WHO, OECD. Aileen Robertson from GNH Metropol is lead for health inequalities in women and children.
