Projects that address the Social Determinants of Health and a Health Equity Approach will receive priority for funding. The Social Determinants of Health describe the conditions in which people are born, grow, live, work and age – such as housing, food, income, natural and built environments, social safety net and social inclusion. What is Health Equity? By focusing on priority populations, it is recognized that achieving health equity will improve the health of all Manitobans. Some populations are more likely to experience poor health outcomes and shorter life expectancy. These populations include Indigenous peoples, newcomers and refugees, visible minorities, people living in poverty, persons with disabilities and people experiencing long-term unemployment, homelessness or other types of economic and social marginalization. Using a Health Equity approach in your HTN project will seek to remove unfair and avoidable barriers to heath for priority populations.
