Ethnic minority young people and health
The National Heart Forum – an alliance of some 45 national organisations concerned with the prevention of coronary heart disease - commissioned ETHNOS to profile young ethnic minority people in England, to summarise existing research on their health status and needs, to discuss the merits of competing explanations for the reported inequalities in health, and to make recommendations to improve the health of young people from ethnic minority backgrounds.
Our report was published in 2003 in a book entitled: “A lifecourse approach to coronary heart disease prevention: Scientific and policy review."
