I was really pleased to speak at an OPSEU symposium on equity over the weekend. Unions have long played a central role in the broad community coalitions that are so vital to addressing the underlying social determinants of health inequalities. And OPSEU and other union members work on the front-lines of health and are vital players in the innovative solutions needed to build equity into all service delivery and planning. This talk sets out a comprehensive health equity strategy, and some ideas on how community mobilization can help win it.
