This panel will address the growing interest in reducing health inequalities through a broad intersectoral approach, Health in All Policies. This approach includes the impact on health of health promotion and health care policies as well as of other sectors, such as education, housing, employment, agriculture, incarceration and immigration policies. It will also advocate incorporating socioeconomic factors, such as economic inequality, into US health policy and addressing these barriers to action on the determinants of health. Action recommendations include overcoming: Political barriers (show that it doesn't take a revolution, take intermediate action, demonstrate cost-effectiveness, focus on populations where economic impact or political interest is greatest); Professional barriers (find common ground with advocates of universal access, make peace with behaviorists, build on efforts that start with health); and Organizational barriers (conduct health impact assessment, consider block-grant funding for health and other services, appoint a special commission, establish a permanent locus of collaboration, involve states and communities). The panelists will discuss Health Impact Assessment and urban planning for fostering healthy communities; prison health reform and the contribution criminal justice system reform can make to national health; and the contribution of global disaster management and planning to health and safety, with a particular focus on the most vulnerable populations, in a number of countries, including Ethiopia.
