PhoenixTN is a European Union-funded thematic research network for the
development of health and social welfare policy in Europe. We are currently
engaged in a project to evaluate the impact of HISTORICAL health and social
welfare policies.
We are composing a list of the initiatives/developments/policies which have had
the greatest impact on health. This is meant in its broadest sense (i.e. goes
beyond the usual 'magic bullet' items).
We would greatly appreciate contributions from historians, contemporary policy
experts and others so that we can make a useful synthesis. Perhaps it has been
done before (we'd appreciate references), but hope that our request might spark
some interesting list discussions.
If you have any queries about PhoenixTN, or wish to send your suggestions direct
to us, please address them to:
