As a class we are discussing factors that contribute towards health issues that people exeperience. We often look at health issues and make assumptions that the health issue is a result of a superficial factor without really exploring and unpacking the factors or "determinants of health" that contribute towards the issue.

-Why does he live in a "run down" neighbourhood?
-Why is his dad unemployed?
-Why is his mum sick?
