How Can Public Health Interventions Reduce Health Inequities?

Public health interventions can address health inequities by focusing on upstream factors that influence health. These include:
- Policy Changes: Implementing policies that address income inequality, improve education, and ensure equitable access to healthcare.
- Community Engagement: Involving communities in the planning and implementation of health programs to ensure they meet the specific needs of the population.
- Targeted Programs: Designing programs that specifically target at-risk populations, such as vaccination campaigns in underserved areas or nutritional support for low-income families.
