The commission on health’s social determinants was being created by the World Health Organization in order to understand this complexity better. They were given a task to gather and summarize the evidence on the society’s structure by interactions, institutions and the norms that are impacting the health of the population and the measures which are not taken by the government and the general public to control the illness and improve health. Further the frame of social class and the knowledge pointstowards the adaptation of the human rights architecture in order to enable the health equity’s realization and further the state is claimed as the bearer of the duty. Furthermore, the inequalities in the illness and health as per the knowledge and the social class are given for the better understanding. Then the differences in the approaches which are being adopted by the various disciplines in the health and illness solutions are given. Then the major factors which impact the health profile of the individual and the society are given along with relationship among the health, vulnerable society members and the organizations.Inequalities in Health and Illness According to Social Class and Knowledge The social class and the knowledge has a great impact on the health and illness in order to receive the life expectancy and the knowledge, and social class brings inequality to a great extent. The social determinants of the health are social and economic conditions and it further gives rise to the group differences in the status of the health. People of backwards classes doesn't get the adequate knowledge in order to improve their health and get cured of the illness. Whereas, the other people gets adequate knowledge and are more conscious of their health (Bocoum et al., 2015). Further, the inequality in health and illness is the term which is being used in various countries in order to refer the instances where the illness and health of the various groups of demography like racial and ethnic groups differ in spite of the access to services to the health care. This type of examples contains increased rate of mortality and the morbidity for the lower classes of occupation as compared to the higher classes of the occupation.

It has been observed that the people who have low socioeconomic status experience the great inequality in the illness and health and they doesn’t get the adequate health care because they don’t have the appropriate knowledge in order to improve their well-being. Therefore, it has been proved from the various researches that there is great inequality in the illness and health depending on the knowledge and the social class to which people belong.Differences in the Various Approaches Adopted by Disciplines There are various approaches which are being adopted by the various disciplines in order to bring the equality among the illness and health. The approaches are as follows (Pavalko, E.K. and Caputo, J., 2013):Promoting social responsibility for the health and the illnessAccording to the WHO, people of the backwards class and people who are having lower socioeconomic status are made aware about the importance of health and what measures can be taken in order to avoid illness and cure it easily without impacting the immunity system to a great extent. It is very important to promote the social responsibility as it will help in bringing equality in the health and illness.Maximizing investment for the development of healthAccording to the researchers, the government is investing more for the development of the healthof people. The concept of the ecological public concept is being used which is related to the transforming nature of the illness and the health. People are given knowledge about the ecology in order to create awareness among them to remain healthy (Wagstaff, A., 2015). Further, this helps in achieving sustainable development and the health.Growing partnerships for the promotion of the health educationAccording to the various disciplines, the partnerships are growing among various health development organizations in order to promote heath education in such a way that the people of backwards classes become conscious about their health like the people who have the higher socioeconomic status and have a social class. The main aim of such organizations is to bring equality among the health and the illness.
