CPG Health Inequalities: A Human Rights Approach to Inclusion Health

January 17, 2021

The Health Inequalities CPG met on the 13th October online meeting via Zoom. The AGM took place.

The meeting will be chaired by Group Co-Convenor Anas Sarwar MSP.

TOPIC: A Human Rights Approach to Inclusion Health

Public Health Scotland has just published a report on behalf of a cross-sector, multiagency group on the need for a human rights based approach to COVID-19 and the planning and recovery of services. The aim is to minimise unintended negative impacts on health for the most marginalised and excluded, preventing further increases in inequality in our communities.

  • Claire Sweeney, the Director of Place and Wellbeing, Public Health Scotland
  • Katrina Reid, Health Improvement Manager – Health and Housing, Public Health Scotland
