We know that population health and health inequalities are a product of the complex interplay of many different factors, including social, behavioural, economic, political and environmental determinants of health. These factors come together in complex adaptive systems that are often resistant to change. This makes it very difficult to find out how we can improve health, or to understand or predict the impact on health of different policies or interventions.We aim to provide leadership in the development of new research methods to evaluate programmes that aim to improve health and reduce inequalities in health. This work is important since decision makers need to understand where to target effort and investment. It is imperative that we can identify what works, for whom, under what circumstances and why. We will further develop and apply methods to help researchers, decision makers and the public share their knowledge to gain richer understandings of how multiple factors come together to influence heath and inequalities. We will use simulation and evaluation methods to identify solutions that contribute to improve health and reduce inequalities. Our work will focus on mental health, healthy ageing, adolescent health, social care and healthy schools.

我们知道，人口健康和健康不平等是许多不同因素复杂相互作用的产物，包括健康的社会、行为、经济、政治和环境决定因素。这些因素在复杂的适应性系统中聚集在一起，这些系统通常抵制变化。这使得我们很难找出如何改善健康，或者理解或预测不同政策或干预措施对健康的影响。我们的目标是在开发新研究方法方面提供领导，以评估旨在改善健康和减少健康不平等的计划。这项工作很重要，因为决策者需要了解努力和投资的目标。我们必须能够确定什么是有效的、对谁有效、在什么情况下有效以及为什么有效。我们将进一步开发和应用方法，帮助研究人员，决策者和公众分享他们的知识，以更深入地了解多种因素如何共同影响健康和不平等。我们将使用模拟和评估方法来确定有助于改善健康和减少不平等的解决方案。我们的工作将侧重于心理健康、健康老龄化、青少年健康、社会关怀和健康学校。
