Oral

This session focuses on one topic from the perspective of the 3 foci of our Spirit of 1848 caucus: social history of public health, politics of public health data, and progressive pedagogy. Thus, for 2015, the session will focus on: “Critical work on health equity in all policies – history, data, pedagogy, and action.” Its 3 presentations will address: -- the radical history of the idea of health equity in all policies, from a global perspective; -- the politics of public health data as they play out in advancing and evaluating health equity in all policies, from the standpoint of a progressive public health agency seeking to implement such policies; and -- progressive pedagogy about health equity in all policies, from the vantage of a course that engages students in community-driven partnerships that implement this approach.

Session Objectives: Discuss the concept of "health equity in all policies" in relation to historical examples, current application in practice, and ways of teaching about how to implement this policy approach.
