The Conference Themes:
The overarching theme for the ISEQH's Fourth International Conference, Creating Healthy Societies through Inclusion and Equity, reflects the central role of social, political, and economic determinants in creating health.
In addition, the conference will focus on two new topics, to encourage the presentation and discussion of research and evaluation on the achievement of equity:
- aboriginal health, acknowledging the need to address the inequities experienced by many indigenous communities; and 
- arts and equity in health, exploring ways to evaluate how working through the arts improves social inclusion and enhances equity in health. 

The International Society for Equity in Health (ISEqH) The purpose for which ISEqH is formed is to promote equity in health and health services internationally through education, research, publication, communication and charitable support:

·          to promote equity and expose inequity in health and in health care services internationally; 

·          to facilitate scientific interchange of, and disseminate conceptual and methodological knowledge on issues related to equity in health and health care services; 

·          to advance research related to equity in health; and 

·          to maintain corresponding relationships with other relevant international and regional organizations.
