The WHO Global Webinar Series on Equity, COVID-19 and the Social Determinants of Health (SDH) discusses the disproportionate impacts that the COVID-19 pandemic is having on more disadvantaged population groups, with a focus on how it is widening health inequities. It should serve as a call for action to support those groups most affected, to mitigate impacts, and to take the opportunity of the pandemic to revisit how societies deal with the SDH and health equity. Each seminar in this Series will cover the evidence on inequities in health exacerbated in the COVID-19 pandemic and address good practices and solutions to improve health equity through addressing the social determinants.
The webinars in this series are organized by the Department of Social Determinants of Health and the Unit of Gender, Equity and Human Rights.
