Prevention and health inequalities : Achieving cost-effective and evidence-based solutions to impact on whole populations
30 March 2010, 9.30am-4.30pm, The King’s Fund, London
Prevention is high on the political agenda, so it is important that those working in health and social care understand what interventions work best in terms of being evidence-based and, in the current financial climate, representing good value for money.
This conference, run in partnership with the Department of Health's Health Inequalities National Support Team, will look at how prevention initiatives can be evaluated and will explore what is currently working in practice.
Keynote speakers:
· Sir Michael Marmot, Chair, Strategic Review of Health Inequalities in England Post 2010 (Marmot Review)
· Professor Chris Bentley, Head of National Support Team for Health Inequalities, Department of Health
