Population Health, Sustainable Development, and Policy Futures

October, 1998.

"Population health" and "sustainable development" are labels that describe two related "big picture" analyses of broad social relations that are greatly extended through space and time, and which involve economic, socio-cultural, and environmental dimensions.

The purpose of this paper is to consider conceptual linkages between sustainable development and population health, and to reflect upon what these areas of joint concern suggest for public policy.
