P4. Social determinants of health
Coordinator: Ma José López Medina
The programme has continued with the scientific activity resulting from the subprogrammes “Energy Poverty and Health” and “Gender Violence”, and in 2019 a new subprogramme on Real World Data was started. This year, the Energy Poverty subprogramme has published several articles mainly related to the association of energy poverty and health, and to the evaluation of an intervention to reduce energy poverty in populations with the highest risk of vulnerability. In addition, the Gender Violence subprogramme has published throughout the year numerous articles related to the factors associated with gender violence, with the spatial analysis of femicides or with the evaluation of an intervention to reduce violence in adolescents, among other topics. The Real World Data subprogramme, aimed at providing statistical methods to establish and validate a population cohort of economic, social and environmental determinants of health, based on real-world data, has held held its first meeting in which different study groups have been defined and work has been done on a new coordinated research project.
In addition to the scientific activity of the subprogrammes, the large number of articles published by researchers from the different groups, all related to the field of social determinants, is worth highlighting as well as the leadership and participation in research projects obtained in national and international competitive calls. These projects address very diverse topics, ranging from the study of masculinities and violence against women, to the evaluation of urban inter- ventions, the evaluation of healthcare needs of people with chronic diseases according to social and environmental determinants through responsible data science or the health impact of cooperative housing. In 2019, the evaluation of an intervention to adapt schools to climate change was also launched, within the framework of the Urban Innovative Action of the European Union.
Beyond the scientific articles and the projects obtained in competitive calls, this year two highly relevant transfer and translation actions stand out in the Programme:
On the one hand, a session in the European Parliament in Brussels, in which the results of the European project TackSHS were presented regarding the impact of policies on exposure to environmental tobacco smoke, and data collected in more than 12 European countries through surveys and environmental measurements. The session aimed to make proposals to modify the laws based on the evidence generated in this project.
Furthermore, worth noting is the publication of the “Atlas of Social Determinants of Health in Spain. Evolution and Variability between the Autonomous Communities ”, which aims to identify and develop indicators that serve to assess the impact that changes in the social and environmental context, including the most recent economic crisis,
