This year several important papers on health inequalities were published by major international organisations, such as the WHO and OECD, and the EU. Together with the recently adopted Council Conclusions under the Finnish Presidency on the Economy of Wellbeing, these reports call for more action to address health inequalities by improving access to health care for all and by addressing the wider social determinants of Health. The starkest manifestations of growing social inequalities with devastating health consequences are seen in the homelessness that is growing in all except one EU member states. It is in this context that we have decided to dedicate this issue of our magazine, “Homeless in Europe”, to the realities of health and homelessness.
