Studies & Reports 37 of 61
"The first part analyzes the documentation on the origins of this concept and its use in the health field. The second part of the report sets out four approaches in the area of social determinants of health. These approaches, which all centre on the social capital concept, are community health, social capital, socio-economic inequality and social cohesion. Research demonstrating the positive effects of social capital on health is presented in studies such as those conducted by Kawachi et al. (1997 and 1999), and Putnam (2001).
The third part of the report briefly reviews the various methods used to measure social capital, as well as the indicators commonly used in research on the subject. Finally, the development of policies aimed at strengthening social capital is explored in the fourth part. Research groups and studies linked to social capital issues in Canada are included in an appendix."
