Dear All:
Roundtable on Socio-Economic Determinants of Health
February 8 & 9, 2007-Edmonton
Debate is hot in Canada regarding unsustainable spending increases on
healthcare. What can be done to lighten the burden? This Roundtable explores
the many ways in which better integration of policy across all levels and
all domains of government can function towards building stronger communities
that have the necessary features for good, healthy living. From issues of
housing to transportation to employment, the Roundtable offers a forum for
national dialogue about local solutions to our healthcare spending crisis.
Members include an array of government officials, private sector leaders,
and community and charitable organizations. The focus of our Edmonton
meeting in February will be an exploration of the sustainability of Canada's
major cities and the opportunities for change presented by rapid growth in
Canada's west. To receive an invitation to this meeting or to find out more
about becoming a member of the Roundtable, please contact
