Dear Colleagues Can i draw your attention to the following resources. The Flemish Institute for Health Promotion (VIG) coordinated a two year research project in collaboration with the European Network of Health Promotion Agencies (ENHPA) with the participation of 13 EU countries and Norway. The aim of the project was to identify policies and practices across the EU that tackles inequalities in health and to produce recommendations for policymakers. The research report and executive summary can both be downloaded by going to http://www.eurohealthnet.org/EuroHealthNet/ and selecting option "Tackling Inequalities in Health" In addition following the production of the report an expert group identified 8 key recommendations from the original 42 in the report. These are also available, as is information from a high level round table conference held in Brussels last December to discuss inequalities in health. The final conference report is available at http://www.eurohealthnet.org/Eurohealthnet/Ressources/roundtablereport.pdf Best wishes David McDaid LSE Health and Social Care
