does it work?
12 april 2022 - Ien van den Goor
Chapter 1 and Chapter 2 of Eyler, AA, Chriqui, JF, Moreland-Russell, S. & RC Brownson eds. (2016)
Prevention, Policy and Public Health. Oxford UP, USA.
Central concepts
Public policy: Refers to laws, regulatory measures, courses of action, and funding priorities concerning a
given topic by a governmental entity or its representatives.
Health policy: refers to decisions, plans and actions that are undertaken to achieve specific health care
goals within a society (WHO).
Public health: refers to health protection + health promotion for the population as a whole/specific
groups, including prevention and early detection of diseases (Dutch Public Health Acts).
Life expectancy: indicator for population health.
Life expectancy at birth reflects the overall mortality level of a population; its summarizes the mortality
pattern that prevails across all age groups in a given year - children and adolescents, adults and the
elderly.
Life expectancy: indicator for population health
Global life expectancy at birth in 2016 was 72 years (74.2 years for females and 69.8 years for males);
Ranging from 61.2 years in the WHO African Region to 77.5 years in the WHO European Region, giving a
ratio of 1.3 between the two regions.
Eastern part has the lowest life expectancy. Child mortality is high in Africa, which decreases life
expectancy.
Life expectancy in Europe
Rich countries do not all have a high life expectancy. Countries in the Mediterranean have the highest life
expectancy, because of the ‘mediterranean diet:’ a lot of fish and vegetables. Males have a lower life
expectancy than women.
Life expectancy in western societies: education
Males with the lowest education in the Netherlands live on average 7 years shorter than those with the
highest education. This difference almost doubles (15 years) when looking at the number of years living in
good health.
Social determinants and health: basic models and illustrations
What influences our health? What determines our health: two basic models
• The Health Field Concept model by Lalonde (1976)
• The Socio-ecological Framework by Dahlgren and Whitehead (1991)
