Scotland's Population Health Framework
The Population Health Framework sets out Scottish Government's and COSLA’s long-term collective approach to improving Scotland’s health and reducing health inequalities for the next decade.
Framework Structure
The Framework is structured around the prevention drivers of health and wellbeing,[11] with an overarching driver focused on ‘how’ the system needs to transform to be more prevention-oriented through coordinated activities across all drivers. The drivers capture the essential building blocks of health and highlight interconnected areas of focus which require collaborative action across government and sectors.
The Prevention Drivers of Health and Wellbeing are:
- Prevention Focused System – Strengthen collective accountability for population health outcomes and inequalities
- Social and Economic Factors – Improve the social and economic factors that support better health and reduce inequalities
- Places and Communities – Create healthy and sustainable places by working in and with communities
- Enabling Healthy Living – Develop supportive environments that promote health and wellbeing and reduce health harming activities
- Equitable Health and Care – Foster a health and social care system that delivers equity, prevention and early intervention
