Population health intervention research casebook

The Population Health Intervention Research Casebook presents eight Canadian case studies. Summarized from the perspective of the research teams, the cases describe strategies to address structural conditions affecting health and health inequities. This resource explores how research question(s) arose, how partners were involved, how local context shaped the interventions, and how challenges in scaling up and sustaining interventions were addressed. Expert commentary is provided by Penny Hawe, Founding Director of the Population Health Intervention Research Centre, and Ted Bruce, Executive Director of Population Health at Vancouver Coastal Health.
