The Collective for the Political Determinants of Health is an international community of scholars who share a commitment to advancing research on how power constellations, institutions, interests, and ideological positions affect health within different political systems and cultures, and at different levels of governance.
The members of the Collective for the Political Determinants of Health collaborate by convening public events and workshops, actively sharing information, and working together on publications and research projects.
The Collective is led by Katerini T. Storeng and Sakiko Fukuda-Parr, supported by a Secretariat hosted by the University of Oslo’s Centre for Development and the Environment (SUM) and funded by the Norwegian Research Council. We operate on a voluntary basis and are not a funding source.
We are now recruiting between 10 and 15 new members. Applications are open to all scholars regardless of seniority. Our aim is to ensure a diverse and dynamic group that includes younger scholars and members from different regions, backgrounds, and disciplines.
Membership is free. It requires a commitment to:
- Advancing scholarship and analysis of the political determinants of health;
- Supporting other members;
- Writing one blog pr year;
- Attending at least one Collective event per year (online or in person).
please fill out the application form by 5PM CEST on Friday 22 March 2024.
