Stockholm University’s Centre for Research on Health Inequalities (Centrum för forskning om ojämlikhet i hälsa) is dedicated to studying the various factors that contribute to health disparities among different populations. The center focuses on understanding how social, economic, and environmental conditions influence health outcomes and access to healthcare services. Researchers at the center engage in interdisciplinary studies, drawing from fields such as public health, sociology, and epidemiology to analyze and address these complex issues.
The center aims to produce high-quality research that informs policy and practice, contributing to a better understanding of health inequalities both in Sweden and globally. It collaborates with various stakeholders, including governmental and non-governmental organizations, to promote evidence-based interventions that can help reduce health disparities. Through its research initiatives, the center seeks to raise awareness about the importance of addressing health inequalities and to support efforts aimed at improving health equity across different communities.
