Social Determinants of Health (SDOH)
Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) are the conditions in which people are born, grow, live, work, and age, which significantly influence health outcomes. This is a critical public health concept for Zambian tertiary students. SDOH include factors like education, income, housing, and social support networks. Students analyze how addressing SDOH is essential for effective health programming and reducing inequities in Zambia. Understanding SDOH is key for exams and for future health leaders to advocate for intersectoral collaboration and design interventions that go beyond clinical care to improve the underlying social and economic conditions affecting community health.
