Evidence of inequalities

There is limited evidence at the moment on inequalities linked to faith and religion and we are keen to work to improve this understanding moving forward.

However Faith Action has published a series of reports about faith and health and has developed a toolkit to support faith settings evaluating impact.

Several of the major religions have medical associations who produce evidence based briefings on health issues and religion:

• British Islamic Medical Association
• UK Sikh Doctors Association
• Jewish Medical Association

We collaborated with Public Health England to develop a toolkit for Healthy Living Mosques, and have built on this work by developing an Islamic Healthy Faith Settings Toolkit.
