Summary of the three principles of actions put forward by this paper:

1 Improve the conditions of daily life – the circumstances in which people are born, grow, live, work, and age.

2 Tackle the inequitable distribution of power, money, and resources – the structural drivers of those conditions of daily life – globally, nationally, and locally.

3 Measure the problem, evaluate action, expand the knowledge base, develop a workforce that is trained in the social determinants of health, and raise public awareness about the social determinants of health.
