Commercial Determinants of Health

Materials to support Local Authorities in their work on the Commercial Determinants of Health

Two new resources have been published to help Local Authorities in their work on the Commercial Determinants of Health. Led by Yorkshire & the Humber’s Anna Brook, and with input from many in the region, these materials can be found on the ADPH website and through the links below.

 

CDoH Essentials: introduce colleagues to the commercial determinants of health

CDOH Essentials is a set of materials designed for public health professionals to use to plan and run an introductory workshop or briefing session on the commercial determinants of health (CDOH) for public health teams and key internal partners within local authorities.

Developed by Anna Brook with Katherine Körner, May van Schalkwyk and Mark Petticrew, through the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine Commercial Determinants Research Group, the materials have been endorsed by ADPH as part of their project on CDOH.

You can find the materials here: https://www.adph.org.uk/resources/cdoh-essentials/

 

Good Governance toolkit: managing commercial interactions in line with values & priorities  

Developed by Anna Brook and Katherine Körner. The toolkit is a set of materials focused on supporting local authorities to improve governance of commercial interactions, relationships and influence, to maximise benefits and minimise risk for population health. The toolkit has been endorsed by ADPH as part of their project on CDOH and the design of the report was funded by the SPECTRUM Consortium & Stirling University.

The toolkit can be found here:
