In 1998 on the World Health Assembly there was approved that health is one of the fundamental rights of the human being. Human health depends on many interrelated factors, among which the most important is lifestyle. For this reason, efforts to improve public health should be focused on health promotion, including health education and prevention. Health promotion is defined as the process of enabling people to increase control over their health by making choices and decisions conducive to health. Improving the health and the life quality are the primary goals of the Polish National Health Programme for 2007-2015. This article presents the specific objectives of the Polish National Health Programme in the context of health promotion, including among others, the reduction of tobacco distribution, alcohol consumption, nutrition improvement and physical activity increase among Polish population.

The existing paradoxical differences in the mortality and morbidity rates (death rates and illness rates) between men and women, which are difficult to explain by biological factors, have called researchers’ attention to social and cultural factors as a possible explanation. The worldwide statistics indicate that women outlive men in almost all countries, while at the same time they suffer from higher morbidity rates than men, due to chronic physical and affective disorders. In addition, the data shows that women, as compared to men, are underprivileged in several material resources that are important to preserve good health. This puzzling situation has invited a search for socio-cultural factors that could shed some light on the nature of different health patterns of men and women. This article uses a sociological perspective in an attempt to show that the observed differences may be attributable to differing socio-cultural and structural arrangements of both genders.

Among the many studies on the Krasiński family, those devoted mainly to Zygmunt Krasiński, an outstanding poet, one of the Polish national poets, understandably dominate. But the fate of other members of this family that was so distinguished for Poland, may also be interesting. Especially those whose lives were marked by the complicated health conditions of the descendants of Zygmunt Krasiński. The article is devoted to Zofia Krasińska, his granddaughter, who during her short life struggled with an inherited disease in her family – tuberculosis.
PL
Wśród wielu opracowań dotyczących rodziny Krasińskich dominują, co zrozumiałe, opracowania poświęcone głównie Zygmuntowi Krasińskiemu – wybitnemu poecie, jednemu z polskich wieszczów narodowych. Ale interesujące mogą być również losy innych członków tej zasłużonej dla Polski rodziny. W szczególności tych, na których życiu odciskały swoje piętno skomplikowane uwarunkowania zdrowotne potomków Zygmunta Krasińskiego. Niniejszy artykuł poświęcony jest Zofii Krasińskiej, jego wnuczce, która przez swoje krótkie życie zmagała się z dziedziczną w tej rodzinie chorobą – gruźlicą.

Health inequities are defined as systematic differences in health that can be avoided by appropriate policy intervention, and for this reason are considered unfair and unjust. Health inequities are not solely related to access to health care services; they are caused by the unequal distribution of these determinants of health, including power, income, goods and services, poor and unequal living conditions, and the differences in healthdamaging behaviours that these wider determinants produce. They are defined as systematic differences in health that can be avoided by appropriate policy intervention and that are therefore deemed to be unfair and unjust. To be able to devise effective action, we first need to understand the causes of these inequities in health. Health inequities are not solely related to access to health care services; there are many determinants related to living and working conditions, as well as the overall macro-policies prevailing in a country or region. The differences in social and economic development are reflected in health inequities that can be seen both between and within countries. Furthermore, evidence shows that even in the more affluent countries health inequities are seen in all parts of Europe. In the WHO European Region the gap in life expectancy between countries is 17 years for men and 12 years for women. Inequities in health are caused by the unequal distribution of these determinants of health, including power, income, goods and services, poor and unequal living conditions, and the differences in health-damaging behaviours that these wider determinants produce. The experiences of various countries indicates that in order to narrow the health inequities countries have to improve living conditions including the provision of comprehensive welfare systems, and high-quality education and health services. The Strategy Health 2020 developed and approved by the WHO European Region countries is focusing on reducing inequities in health, which are key strategic objectives of endorsed by the 53 Member States. It emphasizes the need to strengthen population-based prevention on the social determinants of health. Also, in 2009 the European Commission developed European Union (EU) Health Strategy Programme titled “Solidarity in health: reducing health inequalities in the European Union”.

The analysis was worked out on the basis of Health Variables of The European Statistics of Income and Living Condition (EU-SILC), European Health Interview Survey (EHIS). The SRH-self-rated health variable in relation to education and income was used in ther analysis. There were two research hypotheses put forward and verified during the study. H1: Education is a stronger determinant than income affecting health inequalities of the populations of the, so called, new UE countries. H2: The state of health inequality, investigated during the period 2006–2015, is increasing in the, so called, new UE countries.

Analizę opracowano na podstawie Health variables of The European Statistics of Income and Living Condition (EU-SILC), European Health Interview Survey (EHIS). Do analizy wykorzystano zmienną SRH-self-rated health w zależności od wykształcenia i dochodu. W toku pracy postawiono dwie hipotezy badawcze, które poddano weryfikacji w badaniach. H1: Wykształcenie jest silniejszą od dochodu determinantą wpływającą na nierówności zdrowotne populacji w tzw. krajach nowej UE. H2: Stan nierówności zdrowotnej badany w okresie 2006–2015 roku zwiększa się w tzw. krajach nowej UE.

It was revealed that in the years 2006–2015 the highest health inequalities characterized the inhabitants of Europe with low level of education and in the second income group GIH-Q20-40. The lowest inequalities in terms of health were revealed among the Europeans with secondary education and the highest income group. The highest inequalities with bad health were found among Europeans with higher education and the highest income group. The reason for the inequalities are other determinants of the state of health, e.g. availability of health care services. The lowest inequalities with bad health were revealed in a group of people with secondary and lower education and occurred in 2014 in the first and third income group.
PL
Wykazano, że w latach 2006–2015 najwyższymi nierównościami zdrowotnymi charakteryzowali się mieszkańcy Europy z niskim wykształceniem i w drugiej grupie dochodowej GIH-Q20-40. Najniższe nierównomierności związane ze zdrowiem wystąpiły u mieszkańców Europy ze średnim wykształceniem i w najwyższej grupie dochodowej. Najwyższe nierównomierności związane ze złym zdrowiem wystąpiły u mieszkańców Europy z wysokim wykształceniem i w najwyższej grupie dochodowej. Ich powodem są inne determinanty stanu zdrowia, np. dostępność opieki zdrowotnej. Najniższe nierównomierności w związku ze złym zdrowiem wystąpiły w grupie osób ze średnim i niskim wykształceniem w 2014 roku w pierwszej i trzeciej grupie dochodowej.
