Politics policies and processes: a multidisciplinary and multimethods research programme on policies on the social determinants of health inequity in Australia

摘要

IntroductionThe development and implementation of multisectoral policy to improve health and reduce health inequities has been slow and uneven. Evidence is largely focused on the facts of health inequities rather than understanding the political and policy processes. This 5-year funded programme of research investigates how these processes could function more effectively to improve equitable population health.
