Resource Database
Europe knows a wide range of policies, good practices, research outputs, and initiatives that address health inequalities and the socioeconomic determinants of health. Our health equity resources database offers hundreds of such resources. Via the search function you'll find resource on a specific topic, from a specific year, or from a specific country. Use on your keywords for a targeted search. Or use the form below to add your own resources to our database.
What is the health equity resource database?
The resource database includes examples of work on health inequalities including
- publications
- good practices
- initiatives and organisations
- data sources
- policies and policy analysis
- research
The database is focused on Europe and European countries.
You can filter results by type (for example: health inequalities research, organisation, intervention/practice, or policy) and theme (for example: built environment, education, or employment). You can also filter by country, or find cross-border collaborations. The level filter allows you to find local, national, European or international entries. Use the search bar to search for keywords.
