The future of public health and population health leadership
November 15 @ 10:30 am - 12:00 pm
With widening health inequalities and stalling life expectancy, the new government faces huge challenges in ensuring a ‘fairer Britain, where everyone lives well for longer’. Improving health and reducing health inequalities requires action far beyond health care to strengthen the building blocks of health – good homes, stable jobs and access to healthy affordable food. These challenges need the expertise and leadership of public health and population health professionals at national, regional and local level.
In this webinar we will explore:
- learning from The King’s Fund recent report Public health and population health: Leading together supported by the Health Foundation
- how the distinctions between definitions of public and population health are presenting leadership challenges
- how roles have evolved over the past 5 years, particularly in light of the pandemic and integrated care systems, and what that means for the future
- what a framework of good practice and collaboration could look like for the future of public and population health leadership.
