Subject: examples of programs aimed at reducing social inequality
Apologies for cross posting!
The South Australian Department of Human Services is currently working
to address the impact of economic and health inequalities on the health
and well being of populations.
The Reference Group for this project is searching for examples of
programs which aim to reduce some form of social inequality, be it in
health, education, income, whatever. We are interested in establishing a
framework of what works and what doesn't work with particular social
groups at different administrative/government scales and in different
places. Ideally we would like details of the program's aim, timeframe,
budget, who runs it, whether it was ever evaluated, and any other
relevant information if you have it! But if you could give us a starting
point (eg name of program and contact person) that would be very
helpful.
Any assistance you could offer would be very much appreciated!
Kind regards
Lisel
