Scottish Population Health Framework launched 

ByCommunity Team

The Scottish Government and the Convention of Scottish Local Authorities (COSLA) has published a framework for population health. 

The Framework is based on five interconnected aspects of health and wellbeing: 

  • Prevention Focused System 
  • Social and Economic Factors  
  • Places and Communities 
  • Enabling Healthy Living  
  • Equitable Access to Health and Care 

It is intended to improve health and reduce health inequalities in Scotland over the next ten years, including in relation to dementia.
