Social Aspects of Health across the Life Course Programme

该方案的目的是加深我们对特定个人和人群健康和福祉的社会方面的理解，为干预措施的设计、实施和评价提供信息，并为政策制定做出贡献。我们将与相关方案密切合作，主要围绕艾滋病毒和非传染性疾病主题开展工作。主要的地理重点是乌干达，但该方案将酌情促进跨非洲研究和干预措施的制定。我们的方法和理论工作将具有国际意义。拟议的方案以我们过去工作的核心要素为基础，对整个生命过程的健康状况进行调查。我们预计，这一包含卫生经济学的方案将继续发展，并将为乌干达和国际工作人员和学生提供培训和指导。转化研究是我们所有工作的重要方面，我们的目标是为干预措施的开发和测试做出贡献。该方案将侧重于生命过程的不同阶段和特定人群：（1）儿童和青少年;（2）关键（高危）人群;（3）50岁及以上人群。

The aim of the programme is to further our understanding of the social aspects of health and wellbeing for specified individuals and populations to inform the design, implementation and evaluation of interventions, as well as contribute to policy development. We will work primarily across the HIV and Non-Communicable Disease themes in close collaboration with the associated programmes. The main geographical focus is Uganda but the programme will contribute to cross-Africa studies and intervention development as appropriate. Our methodological and theoretical work will be of international relevance. The proposed programme builds on core elements of our past work by investigating health across the lifecourse. We anticipate that the programme, which embraces health economics, will continue to grow and will provide training and mentoring to Ugandan and international staff and students. Translational research is an important aspect of all our work and we aim to contribute to the development and testing of interventions. This programme will focus on different stages of the life course and specific populations: 1) Children and adolescents; 2) Key (at-risk) populations; 3) People 50 years and older.
