The INEQ-CITIES Atlas

Welcome to the INEQ-CITIES Atlas, an online resource that visually demonstrates socio-economic inequalities in health and mortality in 16 European cities at the beginning of the 21st century.

Charles Bridge, Prague

The INEQ-CITIES Atlas is an online resource that visually demonstrates socio-economic inequalities in health and mortality in 16 European cities at the beginning of the 21st Century.  This web-based resource contains city maps that show in detail the social and geographical pattern of the leading causes of death in cities in Northern, Western, Central, and Southern Europe. The INEQ-CITIES Atlas is a useful resource for anyone interested in health inequality, including researchers, practitioners, policy makers, students and the general public. 

The Atlas has been created by the INEQ-CITIES Project, the first ever study to systematically monitor and analyse inequalities in health and mortality within the cities of Europe. 

To see the findings unveiled by INEQ-CITIES researchers, we invite you to browse the INEQ-CITIES Atlas.  To begin, please visit the Background, Methodology or Cities sections of the Atlas website. 

The INEQ-CITIES Atlas was published online in Summer 2012 by the INEQ-CITIES Project.  The Project was co-ordinated by the Agència de Salut Pública de Barcelona, and was partially financed by the Executive Agency for Health and Consumers (EAHC) of the European Union.
