Social and structural determinants of health play a large role in health inequities.
To highlight how nursing science can be used to advance policy and practice in the context of social and structural determinants of health.
This paper reports on the author's keynote presentation from the 2022 State of The Science Conference on Social and Structural Determinants of Health presented by the Council for the Advancement of Nursing Science. Key concepts are overviewed and defined, followed by examples of two community-engaged research projects with findings that inform practice and policy. The author concludes with individual-, social- and structural-level recommendations as a clarion call for nurses to use research to eliminate health inequities and promote justice for all.
What we know is, in part, only as good as what we do with that knowledge. When lives are at stake, gone are the days of knowing something and failing to act on that knowledge.

我们所知道的,在某种程度上,仅仅取决于我们如何利用这些知识。当生命处于危险之中时,知道某件事而不采取行动的日子已经一去不复返了。
