European Directory of Good Practices to reduce health inequalities

The directory of interventions for Good Practices can be used as a search tool in three different ways:

  • Full Text Search
    Find Good Practice interventions by searching for keywords.
      
  • Search for interventions by country
    Find all Good Practice interventions in your country.
      
  • Detailed Search
    Find Good Practice interventions through a combined search (e.g. target groups, age groups, fields of intervention/ determinants of health, settings and quality elements).


Health promotion for socially disadvantaged persons and groups ranks high on national and international policy agendas. Thus, professionals in public health are challenged to develop methods and instruments which display and improve the quality of interventions. One of these methods is the ‘Good Practice’ approach, a comparatively simple and low threshold way to identify, promote and improve the quality of interventions. The Good Practice approach provides pragmatic examples so that  other actors get the chance to reproduce them within their own contexts.


The European Consortium for Action on the Socio-Economic Determinants of Health has carried out two waves of good practice collection.

  • The first wave has been completed in the frame of the EU project Closing the Gap. (See manual for background information, selection critieria etc.).
  • The second wave is presently done in the frame of the EU project Determine. The specific aim is to identify more of the distal social determinants, that are living and working conditions and the general conditions of a society (See manual for background information, selection criteria etc.).

If your organistion or your intervention would like to contribute to the current information, please contact the national project-partner in your country. For more information on general selection criteria, click here.

If you have any problems or recommendations regarding the search in the good practice directory please contact us.
