CONTEXT 2010 is the Year against poverty and social
exclusion. The European Commission is proposing a series of actions to help Member States and other actors tackle the gaps in health and wealth which exist between and within countries in the EU where 78 million people live in poverty.
Health, Poverty and Social Exclusion are strongly inter-related concepts. Health is not only the absence of disease but a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being.
