| 2009 | November 5 | Health in our Multi-ethnic Scotland: Future Research Priorities | The Scottish Government is committed to promoting the health and well-being of all, regardless of
their background. However, a review of ethnicity and health research in Scotland, published in
2001, found that surprisingly little was known about the health of ethnic minorities in Scotland.
The review made a number of recommendations about how to improve the situation but at a seminar four years later there was a consensus that little further progress had been made. Following discussion with the Scottish Government and a range of other stakeholders, NHS Health Scotland agreed to set up a working group chaired by Dr Laurence Gruer, their Director of Public Health Science. It met for the first time in January 2007 with the aim of developing a strategy for future research on ethnicity and health in Scotland. | NHS Health Scotland | 479kb |
