Sir Michael Marmot

Looking forward to our second annual #conference in Birmingham on 8th October. Registration is now open and I hope you'll join us for the day. onlinestore.ucl.ac.uk/conferences-an…

A review of the evidence by @MarmotIHE shows that social protection measures can break the inequalities and pandemics cycle.

It's communities like ours which are the hardest hit by the impacts of air pollution. I was proud to sponsor an event in Parliament this week with the Healthy Air Coalition and @MichaelMarmot who are working to make Britain's air cleaner, healthier and better to breathe.

The #TrailblazerGP Programme is tackling health inequalities by supporting early-career GPs in deprived communities. 100% of alumni say it still shapes their day-to-day work. Read more:🔗tinyurl.com/37z63pvd #HealthEquity #PrimaryCare #MarmotPrinciples

Today I addressed the G20 Joint Finance & Health Task Force w/ our @WHO policy paper on promising high return options to ⬆️ health equity. Policies on social protection, housing, early childhood education, WASH & structural discrimination have great ROI. No excuse for inaction.

In Qatar, @elonmusk said he will fix the cuts to global HIV. Science's Breakthrough of the Year, HIV drug Lenacapavir, won’t reach Africa because of PEPFAR cuts. The problem is real as @UNAIDS has shown. Will you fix it @elonmusk @SecRubio?

Powerful keynote at #HSJHealthInequalities as @MichaelMarmot unpacks the roots of health inequality, from socioeconomic barriers and austerity to structural racism, and calls for urgent policy reform to drive equity in healthcare

Building fairer societies would lead to healthier populations that are more prepared to react to disease outbreaks and prevent pandemics, write @Winnie_Byanyima and @MichaelMarmot. "Building walls and shutting out the world will not protect people. The only way to do that is by…

Cooperation is the ultimate act of self-interest - it leads to a safer and more secure world. Protectionism will not protect against pandemics. Sharing my latest op-ed, with @MichaelMarmot in @ProSyn: project-syndicate.org/commentary/cut…

Building walls and shutting out the world will not protect people. The only way to do that is by reducing inequalities & investing in global health system. In this context, cooperation is the ultimate act of self-interest. Me w/@MichaelMarmot in @ProSyn project-syndicate.org/commentary/cut…

@MichaelMarmot joined @AndrewMarr9 on @LBC yesterday to discuss the UK's child poverty crisis and why the UK has some of the worst child health outcomes in Europe. Watch the clip here: youtube.com/watch?v=3EOvZK…

At @CommonsHealth session on First 1000 Days: A Renewed Focus, I asked @MichaelMarmot of @UCL how we can improve equality in care. His example was clear, a strong, universal health system is exactly what our NHS delivers everyday.

Today at @CommonsHealth evidence session on First 1000 Days: A Renewed Focus, @MichaelMarmot of @UCL shared key insights from his 2010 review on reducing health inequalities. The recommendations weren’t adopted and since then, health inequality has worsened.

New @WHO report on social determinants of health equity provides a much needed reminder to the global community that to improve health equity we must improve society, say @michaelmarmot and @jessjallen bmj.com/content/389/bm…

New @WHO global report reveals nearly 20 after Commission on the Social Determinants of Health, social justice continues to kill on a grand scale @marmotihe @etiennekrug #AllforEquity bit.ly/3SdE4lo

Tariffs introduced by the United States are likely to widen inequalities within and between countries, and have wide-ranging harmful consequences for health @marmotihe croakey.org/chaos-under-tr…
