On Friday 27 May, 果冻影院 Health of the Public hosted the third of their new 'Public Health Voices鈥� webinars.
Socially excluded groups, such as people affected by homelessness, drug use, imprisonment, and sex work, often have had experiences of poverty, violence, complex trauma, stigma, and discrimination. This leads to multiple health issues, such as poor mental and physical ill health and substance dependence. Socially excluded groups often have extremely poor health outcomes that are much worse than the general population, contributing to health inequalities.
Inclusion Health is an emerging discipline which aims to prevent and redress the extreme health harms and inequalities caused by social exclusion through action-oriented services, policymaking, research, education, and advocacy. Central to this approach is the involvement of people with lived experience of social exclusion to understand and prioritise problems from their perspective and to co-produce effective solutions.
Watch this webinar to hear Inclusion Health experts discuss the importance and value of involving people with lived experience of social exclusion and show how this is key to designing effective interventions and solutions.
