  • Understanding the intersection of these fields is vital for advancing health equity.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the relationship between public health, community engagement, and cross-sector governance.
  • To examine how community engagement contributes to achieving health equity within governance frameworks.
  • To identify limitations of current community engagement tools in addressing resource allocation and service access.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of the role of community engagement in achieving health equity.
  • Examination of how public health and cross-sector governance influence community engagement strategies.

Main Results:

  • Current community engagement tools inadequately address funding, resource distribution, and equitable access to services.
  • The integration of public health and cross-sector governance highlights gaps in achieving health equity through engagement.
  • A distinction between 'community engagement for equity' and 'equitable community engagement' is proposed.

Conclusions:

  • Achieving health equity necessitates a nuanced approach to community engagement within cross-sector governance.
