Global health = “Health is influenced by social/structural forces; addressing roots of illness
(poverty, inequality, environmental degrada>on) requires social change.”
- Health problems that transcend na4onal boundaries: coopera4ve ac4ons necessary
- Focused on improving the health of en4re popula4on
- Specific a`en4on to social jus0ce (low/middle-income countries: high
morbidity/mortality, health system func4ons fragile)
- Focused on delivering health services that are: Accessible, Affordable, Appropriate,
Acceptable and with Good Quality.

Sustainable Development Goals

,Transdisciplinary Global Health
- Acknowledges complexity of health issues (climate change, pandemics, etc.)
- Transdisciplinarity = engagement of mul4ple stakeholders to address complex
societal challenges.




Key concepts:
• Power imbalance: ‘Global North’ and ‘Global South’
• Knowledge co-crea0on: Who’s knowledge is considered valid?
• Subjec0ve illness experiences: Whose experiences are considered valuable?
• Health inequity and social jus4ce: Who is deserving of care?
• Health systems: Why do health infrastructures vary within and between countries?
• Global poli0cs: How is popula>on health affected by fluctua>ng poli>cal climates?

, HC 2: Social Determinants of Health
Determinants
Causality results from the interplay of several factors (determinants)
- Determinant = influence, factor, (poten4al) cause

Progress



Determinants of health:
• Physical environment
• Medical care
• Gene4cs and biology
• Social circumstances (24%)
• Individual behaviour




à Determinants (= a pa`ern of interac4on between system elements) affect the health
outcome, and the impact depends on the societal system.


Social Determinants of Health
Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) = condi4ons in which people born, grow, work, age
- Shaped by distribu4on of money, power, resources at global, na4onal and local levels.

à “Societal systems, their components, and the social resources and hazards for health that
societal systems control and distribute, allocate and withhold, such that the demographic
distribu>on or trend of health outcomes is changed” (Hahn, 2021)

A lot of things are social determinants (age, previous infec4on, rank, etc.)
- Not symbol systems (alphabet) or geographic varia4on in soil composi4on


Social Gradient
Social gradient = phenomenon whereby people who are less advantaged in terms of SEP
have worse health (and shorter lives).
a) Thresholds for na4onal income per capita à low, middle or high-income country
