SUMMARY:GREATLEAP Conference: Bridging Perspectives and Connecting Threads on Historical Health Inequalities
DESCRIPTION:We are pleased to invite contributions to the GREATLEAP Conference which will take place on 11-13 May 2026 at Babeș-Bolyai University\, Centre for Population Studies\, Cluj-Napoca\, Romania.\nThe event will bring together scholars and practitioners to engage in dialogue on the long-term historical patterns and contemporary dynamics of health and death inequalities. Our aim is to bridge disciplines\, methods\, and data to deepen our understanding of the evolution and determinants of inequalities in health and mortality across historical time\, and to explore how past realities shape today’s disparities in health outcomes. A main part of the conference will therefore be devoted to meetings of the working groups of GREATLEAP.\n  \nFull Programme click here\n  \n

SUMMARY:Thematic Workshop ‘The deep roots of persistent health inequalities: Socioeconomic and epidemiological drivers since the 19th century’
DESCRIPTION:This workshop explores when\, where\, and under what conditions mortality rates converged during the period 1800–1950 to uncover turning points in the dynamics of mortality decline. By combining insights from (i) the dynamics of mortality change and (ii) the cross-sectional variation across social and spatial groups\, we aim to understand how different interventions and social structures shaped the path toward convergence. \nTurning points may have arisen from specific interventions (such as vaccination\, water and sanitation reforms\, or hospital expansion) or from the cumulative effects of multiple\, interacting improvements in health or\, more generally\, in living conditions. Interventions may have been most effective where mortality was initially high\, and their influence may have grown over time as people and institutions adapted. The social composition within areas\, including the distribution of rich and poor households\, may also have mediated these effects. Whether early gains were confined to privileged groups or diffused gradually as innovations became more accessible and affordable could be a key factor. Cause-specific mortality data may provide an additional lens to distinguish infectious from non-infectious disease trajectories and to trace how shifts in disease environments reshaped social inequalities in health. \nDrawing on contributions from different cities and countries\, the workshop seeks to integrate analyses of mortality dynamics and inequalities\, identifying patterns that reveal the mechanisms of health improvement. Ultimately\, the aim is to develop a comparative framework that explains how interventions\, institutional contexts\, and social conditions interacted to determine both the timing and the equity of Europe’s mortality transition. \nThis workshop is funded by the Radboud-Glasgow Collaboration Fund project ‘The Deep Roots of Persistent Health Inequalities: Socioeconomic and Epidemiological Drivers Since the 19th Century’\, COST-Action GREATLEAP (CA22116) and the Dutch Research Council Veni project ‘Unravelling Health Inequalities. The Historical Roots of Inequality in Death and Disease in West-European Port Cities\, 1850–1950’ (VI.Veni.231F.001).  \n Full Programme

SUMMARY:Information Session and Launch ‘How to publish your GREATLEAP COST Action research with Open Research Europe’
DESCRIPTION:We warmly invite you to join us for the launch and information session of the new Open Research Europe Special Collection “Multidisciplinary approaches to historical health inequalities\, 1800–2022”.\n Registration link: Register here\n  \nWhat this Collection is about\nHealth inequalities have persisted across time\, shaped by structural\, socioeconomic\, environmental\, and demographic factors. The GREATLEAP network brings together historians\, demographers\, epidemiologists\, data scientists\, and public health experts to explore how cause-specific mortality data can shed light on the origins\, dynamics\, and transformations of these disparities from 1800 to 2022. The network is committed to creating comparable individual-level historical cause-of-death datasets\, designing analytical tools\, and generating evidence that bridges past findings with present health policy challenges.  \nThis Special Collection welcomes contributions that engage with the broad theme of historical health inequalities\, and is organized into three thematic subcollections: \n\n\nCoding and Classifying Historical Causes-of-Death — methodological work around standardization\, classification\, and coding of historical mortality data. \n\n\nApproaches and Tools for Individual-level Cause-specific Mortality Data — analytical methods\, software\, or computational tools tailored to individual-level cause-specific mortality records. \n\n\nComparisons between Space and Time using Individual-level Cause-of-Death Data — comparative research that spans regions and periods; to qualify\, submissions must involve authors from at least two countries. \n\n\nAccepted article types include research articles\, case studies\, open letters\, essays\, reviews\, data notes\, methodological articles\, software tool presentations\, and brief reports (depending on subcollection) — as long as they align with the thematic goals of the Collection. \nOpen Research Europe\nOpen Research Europe is an open access publishing platform for the publication of research stemming from European Commission funding across all subject areas. The platform makes it easy for European Commission beneficiaries to comply with the open access terms of their funding and offers researchers a publishing venue to share their results and insights rapidly and facilitate open\, constructive research discussion. Open Research Europe operates under a continuous publication schedule. A key benefit of publishing in Open Research Europe is that publication fees are fully covered for all GREATLEAP members\, meaning you can publish free of charge. In addition\, all articles undergo open peer review\, where reviewer reports and author responses are published alongside the article\, ensuring transparency and constructive engagement. See their FAQ here.  \nWhat will happen at the session\n\nPresentation of the Collection’s goals\, scope\, and structure\nWalkthrough of the submission process and author guidelines at Open Research Europe\nQ&A to address any questions from prospective contributors\n\nThis session is ideal for anyone working at the intersection of history\, epidemiology\, demography\, data science\, public health\, or allied disciplines who is interested in contributing to or learning more about the long-term study of health inequality.
