SUMMARY:Local health inequalities in an age of austerity
DESCRIPTION:Séminaire de l'IRSPUM
\nTitre du séminaire :Local health ineq
 ualities in an age of austerityThis seminar reports on ‘in progress rese
 arch’ which examines the effects of austerity and welfare reform on heal
 th inequalities in Stockton on Tees- a deindustrialised town in the north-
 east of England. Stockton on Tees has the highest geographical inequalitie
 s in health of any English town or city. The life expectancy gap for men s
 tands at 17 years between the most and least disadvantaged neighbourhoods 
 and the gap for women is 12 years. The study is a five-year project which 
 started in 2013. It is funded by the Leverhulme research trust. It is led 
 by Clare Bambra and has four PhD students and two postdoctoral researchers
 . It uses mixed methods - qualitative\, quantitative\, ethnographic\, and 
 archival - to examine the effects of austerity measures on the health gap 
 in Stockton on Tees in the north-east of England. Deindustrialised towns l
 ike Stockton on Tees have experienced considerable cuts in local service p
 rovision and local income via welfare benefit reductions. Combining both q
 ualitative and quantitative data the seminar will explore the nature of th
 e health gap\, the causes of it and the emerging effects of austerity
