- Purpose: We examined coalition health equity capacity using a three-dimensional conceptual framework in a 3-year study (2011–2014) of 28 local coalitions engaged in health promotion. Methods: Coalition health equity capacity was defined according to (1) conceptual foundations, (2) collective action and impact, and (3) civic orientation. This framework was used to qualitatively assess progress in…April 2019Services & Programs, Systemic Determinants
- Our work is based on the idea that health and education outcomes are intrinsically linked. We seek to improve these outcomes collectively and across multiple projects. We developed ETR’s Health Equity Framework to help us, and others, think about improving interrelated outcomes from multiple, overlapping perspectives.

- As a pediatrician and writer for such hit TV shows as China Beach, ER, and Law & Order: SUV, Dr. Neal Baer used creative storytelling to share important public health information with millions of people. Few public health professionals will ever have an opportunity to share their knowledge with such a broad audience. But that doesn’t mean they can’t use a compelling narrative and outreach to…April 2019Social Environment
- The determinants of health inequities between Indigenous and non-Indigenous populations include factors amenable to medical education’s influence—for example, the competence of the medical workforce to provide effective and equitable care to Indigenous populations. Medical education institutions have an important role to play in eliminating these inequities. However, there is evidence that…April 2019Interventions, Systemic Determinants

Children, families, and marginalized adults face life course implications of housing insecurity, while communities struggle to address the extensive array of needs within heterogeneous homeless populations. Trends in homelessness remain stubbornly high despite policy initiatives to end…April 2019Environment/Context, Systemic Determinants

- The weathering hypothesis states that chronic exposure to social and economic disadvantage leads to accelerated decline in physical health outcomes and could partially explain racial disparities in a wide array of health conditions. This systematic review summarizes the literature empirically testing the weathering hypothesis and assesses the quality of the evidence regarding weathering as a…March 2019Social Environment
- This special issue of Global Public Health presents a collection of articles that analyse power and its mechanisms in health systems and health policy processes. Researchers have long noted that the influence of power is implicated throughout the global health field, yet theories and methods for examining power—its sources, workings, and effects—are rarely applied in health policy and systems…February 2019Policy and Practice, Systemic Determinants
- In recent decades, there has been remarkable growth in scientific research examining the multiple ways in which racism can adversely affect health. This interest has been driven in part by the striking persistence of racial/ethnic inequities in health and the empirical evidence that indicates that socioeconomic factors alone do not account for racial/ethnic inequities in health. Racism is…February 2019Racism
- In 2015, the National Institutes on Minority Health and Health Disparities (NIMHD) engaged in a two-year science visioning process for health disparities and convened a series of workshops aimed at identifying promising research directions. A central theme that resonated throughout these workshops was the importance of social determinants of health and their relationship to health disparities.…January 2019Social/Structural Determinants
