Health

What we do

There are significant socio-economic determinants of health risks and spatial inequalities in the Czech Republic. One of the scientific objectives is therefore to promote healthy life expectancy and help reduce health inequalities. Related to this is the study of issues related to the efficiency of the healthcare system, which as a whole faces major challenges, including, for example, an ageing population.
