OPHA and Health Equity
I spent the first three days this week at the Ontario Public Health Association 2009 Annual Conference and wow, am I glad that I went. I was especially happy to see that the OPHA and public health in general is shifting to place a greater emphasis on health equity. The conference, which had a theme of Building for the Future, was filled with presentations and discussions about plans to address social determinants of health to improve health outcomes among marginalized individuals.
