Population tobacco control interventions and their effects on social inequalities in smoking (November 2008)
Reducing social inequalities in smoking and its health consequences is a public-health and political priority: the Department of Health has a specific target to reduce the prevalence of smoking in „manual groups from 32% to 26% by 2015. This project sought to pilot, develop and demonstrate a method which could synthesise the evidence on effective interventions to reduce smoking-related health inequalities, but would also be applicable to interventions to reduce inequalities in other areas of health.
