*SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH IN THE ASSESSMENT OF GLOBAL NEEDS FOR HEALTH

“….. Following the close attention given by WHO’s governing bodies to the
important role played by social determinants of health in global health,
especially in relation to the WHO reform process and the Organization’s
future activities, further review and consultation have taken place.
Tackling social determinants of health is recognized as being both a
fundamental approach to the work of the Organization and a priority area of
work in itself in the draft twelfth WHO general programme of work
2014–2019, which has been discussed by the regional committees before its
further consideration by Executive Board and the Health Assembly…..”****
