A social view of health challenges the traditional biomedical model by considering the impact of social and environmental factors on health.

The social determinants of health are the conditions in which people are born, grow, live, work and age, including the health system. These circumstances are shaped by the distribution of money, power and resources at global, national and local levels, which are themselves influenced by policy choices. The social determinants of health are mostly responsible for health inequities- the unfair and unavoidable differences in health status seen within and between countries.
