EQUINET: Networking for equity in health in eastern and southern Africa

Rene Loewenson

Regional Network for Equity in Health in east and southern Africa (EQUINET)

This short report outlines the perspectives and motivations for the work of the Regional Network for Equity in Health in eastern and southern Africa (EQUINET). It presents key areas of work on health equity being implemented to strengthen the state and public sector in health; organised around the active participation and involvement of communities. This includes work on strengthening people's power for health, on increased fair financing; and on retaining health workers and challenging trade policies that encroach on health. Such work faces challenges that can be met through increased regional networking to exchange experience, information and expertise, particularly given the demand for learning by doingî. (Promotion & Education, 2007, (2): pp 105-106)

Key Words: health equity • Africa • networks
