چکیده
Background Indonesia is a country with great disparities, geographically, demographically, and economically. The implementation of decentralisation had a tremendous impact on the national health system. Since the effective development and implementation of all policies depended on the capability of the heads of districts, these conditions influenced the health of the Indonesian people. In addition, it also brought about health inequity in Indonesia. This study aimed to provide a situation analysis for Indonesia, focusing on the current social determinants of health-related (SDH-related) training in Indonesia, and gaps identified.
