Offering a overview of health-related inequalities and the social determinants of health across all 242 NUTS-2 regions of the European Union.

It provides actionable insights for regional and health policymakers, helping to inform targeted interventions and to design more effective strategies for improving health and well-being.
The first-ever map of health inequality across the NUTS2 regions of the European Union.
Putting the wellbeing of the EU citizens at the heart of decision-making by equipping leaders with data that provides a clear picture of the needs and the priorities of the communities in which they operate and serve.
About the Map
The map evaluates the health realities of EU citizens at a granular (NUTS2) level using health equity and life-course cycle frameworks.

Health equity is assessed through three complementary lenses: the enabling environment, health outcomes, and health perceptions.

The life-course framework compares regional mortality outcomes separately for different age groups.

To better understand the social determinants of health across EU regions, insights from both frameworks are cross-analyzed with indicators from the EU Regional Social Progress Index and the EU Regional Competitiveness Index.
