Abstract
In some urban areas, there are veritable islands of spatial segregation, whose effects on health are current the subject of in-depth analysis. However, these studies involve disciplines and expertise that too often lack proper interaction. This action research project was developed through the community-based approach. Moreover, a research model and structured intervention were created in order to adequately grasp the complexity of the relationships among health disparities, socioenvironmental and economic distress in an “ecological” perspective of health. The proper study of social determinants of health and their unequal spatial distribution can allow researchers to reach significant, fair and lasting solutions in order to challenge and reduce disparities in health.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
