ArticlePublisher: UK : Policy Press, july. 2003Policy & Politics 31, 3, p. 335-352Abstract: Recent health policy changes in New Zealand have included substantive reterritorialisation of governance and provision, as well as the emergence of well-being initiatives targeting specific places. At the same time, a range of place- and population-related community provider organisations has emerged as partners to government and each other. Documenting these changes in the wider contexts of social determinants of health, third way 'social inclusion', urban geographies of poverty, place positioning and decentralisation, this article discusses emerging difficulties and challenges in achieving policy coherence, spatial equity and consistent local collaboration. It concludes by discussing the potential role and scope of place-based 'common accountability platforms'
