The World Health Organization (WHO) defines social determinants of health as the environment where people are born, grow, work and age (Marmot et al., 2008). This environment is shaped by the distribution of money, power and resources at the national, regional and global levels that are by themselves influenced by political choices. Social determinants account for a bulk of the inequities (unjust and avoidable differences in health status seen within countries) (WHO, 2020). Key social determinants of health include socio-economic status, education, income, early childhood, social isolation (caused by discrimination, unemployment and defamation), social capital (intragroup and intergroup relationships), occupation, housing and the environment surrounding the place of residence (Welfare, 2016). Social determinants of health can identify individuals by adjustable behavioural and medical risk factors (Raphael, 2011). Social inequalities in health are associated with social differences in lifestyle and behaviour (WHO, 2010).
