Documentary series - Why is the most powerful country in the world not one of the healthiest? Why do the rich, on average, live longer, healthier lives than the rest of us? Unlike films that examine how health care cures us, UNNATURAL CAUSES explores the unequal conditions that make us sick in the first place.
Public engagement campaign - Together with leading public health, policy and community-based groups, UNNATURAL CAUSES aims to reframe our national debate over health and stimulate dialogue about what we can -- and should -- do to tackle inequities in society.
UNNATURAL CAUSES is produced by California Newsreel with Vital Pictures, Inc. Presented by the National Minority Consortia of public television. Public Engagement Campaign in association with the Joint Center Health Policy Institute.
