There is currently remarkable consensus across think tanks, institutions, and political parties that a move towards a preventive state is key to creating a healthier nation.
A preventive approach can help people live healthily for longer while also addressing many of the problems within the health and care system, allowing for proactive population health management and tackling of health inequalities.
Creating a healthier nation needs collaboration between people, places, the NHS, and businesses, as well as government. If the new government is committed to improve the health of the nation, it should create an approach to health that spans all government departments, includes actions to reduce health inequalities, and implement measures that help people to make healthier choices.
At this in-person event, we make the case for how prevention can create a healthier nation, why it is particularly important now, and propose tangible actions for making this shift at national, system and local levels. Join us to understand why prevention is key to supporting healthier lives and how it can be made a reality.
Event topics
Join leaders from across health and care, thinks tanks, and politicians to explore:
why moving towards a preventive state is particularly important now given the context of widening health inequalities and stalling of life expectancy
how to make the shift to prevention a reality at national, system, and local levels
the importance of measuring spending on prevention
the role of prevention when taking a population health approach
the link between health and housing and how healthier communities can support a wider approach to prevention
