Public Health Scotland has joined with the University College London’s Institute of Health Equity (IHE) for a two-year Collaboration for Health Equity in Scotland (CHES).
Working with Professor Sir Michael Marmot, the director of the Institute, this collaboration will strengthen and accelerate the action underway to: improve Scotland’s health; increase wellbeing; and reduce health inequities.
The partnership between PHS and IHE is to support public service reform and will cover two key areas: work at a national level, providing new insights into the most effective ways to progress with health equity in Scotland through Marmot’s eight principles; and work in partnership with Local Authority and NHS boards across Aberdeen City, North Ayrshire and South Lanarkshire to develop and implement strategies to enhance health equity.
