Socio-spatial Inequalities and Tuberculosis

By Pedro Alves Filho and Anselmo Rocha Romão

The various characteristics and dimensions of poverty need to be analysed in research into the health conditions of individuals and groups in situations of social vulnerability. In fact, public policies aimed at combating poverty and reducing inequalities in health also need to consider the territory as a fundamental element in identifying inequalities. From this perspective, understanding the effect of socio-spatial segregation on the morbidity and mortality status of certain populations plays a fundamental role in studies on social determinants and their influence on living conditions.
