Twenty-five years on from devolution, our health and social care system is failing us. People in Scotland now die younger than in any other Western European country and the gap in life expectancy between the poorest and the wealthiest is growing.
Holyrood’s inaugural Health Inequalities in Scotland: The State of the Nation summit will bring together Scotland’s leading public health voices from the public, private and third sectors to share innovation, make connections and explore the practical steps that can be taken to inspire change and turn the tide.
Over the course of the day, sessions will:
- Explore initiatives that have been successful in tackling health inequalities;
- Discuss solutions to specific challenges such as alcohol and obesity; and
- Consider the roles that different sectors such as life sciences, can and are playing.
The event concludes with a high profile cross-party political panel.
