The National Collaborating Centre for Determinants of Health has completed an environmental scan to understand the current state of public health action on health equity across Canada and, specifically, any key changes that have taken place since a 2010 scan.

The 2010 environmental scan assessed public health practices, barriers, and opportunities to advance health equity. Results from that scan informed the strategic direction and activities of the NCCDH, and equally assisted the public health field in their ongoing efforts at the local/regional and provincial/territorial levels.

This webinar will highlight the findings from the most recent environmental scan. The findings provide guidance for public health planning and practice to improve health equity. They identify key areas of action for public health. They also call on public health organizations to ensure that increased attention to health equity translates into concrete action.

Participants will contribute to the ongoing interpretation of the findings and explore the application of the findings to their own practice and the future efforts of the NCCDH.
