Abstract The construction of alliances in the field of addictions is a key topic to develop effectiveness and efficiency public health policies. The short-term economic stakes can not be the alpha and the omega of public policies. Whether general or sectoral, such as agriculture, they must take into account their impact on the health of populations established by scientific work.

Which conditions foster accountability for health policy implementation in Spain’s 17 regional governments? We analyze five conditions: private management of health services, political salience of health policies, governments’ left ideological position, strong presence of non-statewide parties, and minority governments. We use fuzzy-set Qualitative Comparative Analysis (fsQCA) to identify how necessary and/or sufficient these conditions are (alone or in combination) to foster accountability. We find that there is no single recipe to ‘cook’ accountability. Three conditions appear to be ‘quasi-necessary’ but must be combined with others to foster accountability, thus defining three routes to accountability. The implications of the findings are discussed in light of current debates on the effects of decentralization, left-right ideologies, and privatization, on accountability for public policies.

Background and Aims: To combat hepatitis C virus (HCV) and achieve its elimination by 2030, the emphasis should be on public health policies. In this study, we investigated the dynamics of epidemiology of HCV in Romanian risk groups that are characterized by higher occurrence densities with the aid of The Let’s End HepC (LEHC) project. Methods: The LEHC project addressed the modelling of HCV epidemiology, being applied in several countries, one of which is Romania. The model comprised an integrated solution of public health policies focused on the disease, using Adaptive Conjoint Analysis and Markov chains systems. This tool allowed the quantitative evaluation of public health policies‘ impact, for every year until 2030, in five population groups: people who inject drugs (PWID), prisoners, individuals who have received blood products, children at risk for vertical transmission, and the remnant population. Results: It appears that Romania was already making great efforts in the context of public policies, allowing the achievement of HCV elimination by 2028 if current policies were maintained. Through additional work and greater efforts in further implementing public policies, the LEHC model estimated the possibility of anticipating this outcome to 2026. Conclusion: The LEHC model estimated an anticipation of the HCV elimination year in Romania to be 2026 if the twenty-four health policies in the study are fully implemented and consistently maintained over the years.

O presente estudo propõe uma análise do caminho percorrido na relação entre as políticas públicas de saúde e do meio ambiente em um contexto amplo, através de uma revisão bibliográfica sobre o tema. A aproximação da temática ambiental com o movimento de promoção da saúde permite a ampliação na compreensão do processo saúde-doença. Essa proposta seleciona a integração entre os setores como condição para o estabelecimento e a execução de políticas públicas como maneira de garantir melhores condições socioambientais. Desta maneira, é indispensável uma discussão ampla da importância dos diversos atores sociais relacionados à saúde e ao meio ambiente, entendendo que a ação interdisciplinar através do reconhecimento das políticas públicas melhora a qualidade de vida da população e, consequentemente, contribui para uma sociedade mais equilibrada ecologicamente. Palavras-chave: Políticas públicas, Saúde, Meio ambiente, Saúde ambiental.TRAVERSING THE WAYS OF THE RELATION BETWEEN HEALTH AND ENVIRONMENTAL PUBLIC POLICIES Abstract: This study presents an analysis of the path taken in the relation between public health policies and the environment in a broader context, through a literature review on the topic. The approach of environmental issues with the health promotion movement allows a broader understanding of the health-disease process. This proposal selects the integration across sectors as a condition for the establishment and implementation of public policies as a way to ensure better environmental conditions. In this way, a broad discussion of the importance of various social actors related to health and the environment is essential, understanding that an interdisciplinary action by recognizing the public policies improves people's quality of life and, consequently, contributes to a more balanced society ecologically. Key words: Public policies, Health, Environment, Environmental health.

The aim of this paper is to analyze the way in which the male population has been considered in public health policies and programs related to reproductive behavior of the population in Mexico. It assumes a context in which women have been identified as the protagonists and reference subjects on whom interventions are built in the field of reproductive behavior. The text includes a review of some programs and public policies in Mexico, then present some methodological proposal considering gender as a relational concept. The interest is epistemological, so there is an interest in reflecting on assumptions behind the logic of government interventions in the field of reproduction and then building on some methodological proposals that allow a relational interpretation of women and men as gender subjects, who potentially can reproduce themselves within heterosexual or homosexual couples.
