Dear SDOH colleagues,
Am forwarding this given the recent listserv discussion on social capital:
Social Capital as a Public Policy Tool - Project Conclusion
Policy Research Initiative Canada
What is social capital? Who benefits - and who does not? Is there a
role for government? How can we measure it? Examining the potential of
the concept of social capital to inform policy development and
evaluation, the publications offer a clear framework for the analysis of
the concept, identify policy and program areas where social capital
makes a difference, and offer a strategic set of recommendations for
testing new approaches, improved measurement, and policy action.
