abstract: 'Purpose of the Study: Social and scientific discourses on healthy ageing
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and on health equity are increasingly available, yet from a global
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
perspective limited conceptual and analytical work connecting both has
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
been published. This review was done to inform the WHO World Report on
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ageing and Health and to inform and encourage further work addressing
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
both healthy aging and equity.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Design and Methods: We conducted an extensive literature review on the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
overlap between both topics, privileging publications from 2005 onward,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
from low-, middle-, and high-income countries. We also reviewed evidence
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
generated around the WHO Commission on Social Determinants of Health,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
applicable to ageing and health across the life course.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Results: Based on data from 194 countries, we highlight differences in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
older adults'' health and consider three issues: First, multi-level
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
factors that contribute to differences in healthy ageing, across
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
contexts; second, policies or potential entry points for action that
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
could serve to reduce unfair differences (health inequities); and third,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
new research areas to address the cause of persistent inequities and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
gaps in evidence on what can be done to increase healthy ageing and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
health equity.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Implications: Each of these areas warrant in depth analysis and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
synthesis, whereas this article presents an overview for further
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
consideration and action.'
