It focuses on factors that affect population health development such as poverty, social inequality, gender, ethnicity and individual lifestyle factors, yet also societal strategies to prevent disease and promote health. The public health competence area also covers policy and intervention formulation and analysis that aim to promote health equity goals. Included is also methods for various forms of evaluations, focusing on e.g. whether specific health outcomes are achieved through an intervention, if interventions are cost effective as well as if policies, guidelines and specific priorities in health care and other sectors of society benefit some groups more than others.
