Hi
This is just a short note to say that I will be stepping down as Chair of the Health Equity Network as of April 9th. I've been involved in this role now for more than 3 years, and I'd like now to devote my energies to other things.
We originally established HEN (with a great deal of help from many eminent specialists in the field) to encourage greater inter-disciplinary and inter-sectoral discussion with respect to health inequalities and health equity, and I think, to some small degree, we've achieved that. I've certainly learned a lot from many people who I probably would not even have met had it not been for HEN.
I'm not too certain if anybody would like to take on the role of Chair after I vacate it. I guess the main responsibilities are to co-ordinate with David McDaid regarding the HEN listserve and website, and to organise a few seminars/lectures. If anybody would like to take on the role, please contact me directly. If more than one person would like to do it, we could organise some kind of vote. If none, then HEN will at least continue to exist through the listserve.
Anyway, my kindest regards to you all.
Best wishes
Adam Oliver
