Webinar - May 14, 2014 at 1:00 p.m. to 2:30 p.m. EDT

Public health organizations use various approaches to close the gap between the most and least healthy, and to reduce inequities all along the social and economic health gradient. During this webinar and online conversation, participants will:

•  increase understanding about targeted, universal and targeting within universal approaches in public health programs and services
•  reflect on the supports to – and challenges of – using a targeting with universal approaches, and their impact on improving the health of all

As part of the Let’s Talk series,  the National Collaborating Centre for Determinants of Health (NCCDH) released Let’s Talk… Universal and targeted approaches to health equity.  This discussion guide was designed for decision makers and practitioners who want to talk about when and why to use a universal, targeted, targeting within universal, proportionate universal—or some combination of approaches. 

Recently the NCCDH published a series of short practice examples, Learning from practice: Targeting within universalism, to demonstrate the application of targeting within universalism to achieve greater equity in Canadian public health service delivery.
