He is also recognized as an \"activist editor\" and is considered one of the world's most committed and influential advocates for the health of the population.

Dr. Richard Horton has proven to be a key player in the outreach of medical information to both professionals and a wider public. He has earned the respect of his collaborators and contemporaries through a career of more than 40 years serving the public.<\/p>

The award-winning journalist received the 2019 Roux Award<\/strong>, which is awarded annually to individuals at the forefront of global health innovation.<\/p>

Dave Roux, a philanthropist and entrepreneur from Virginia, describes Horton's work: \"Richard has shaped the evolution of priorities through his weekly editorials and commentaries and through the sponsorship of myriad commissions on the vital health issues of our day.\"<\/em><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The doctor is concerned, among many things, with the quality of life of children and with the mechanisms that affect the political, academic and social spheres to forge equity in access to opportunities for public health services.<\/p>

Another relevant topic that has been included in the public imagination is that of \u201cenvironmental health\u201d, which incorporates public health and its relationship with the environment. He explains that the unity of both is essential and that the understanding of our relationship with the planet will lead not only to the improvement of nature, but also to our general health as human beings.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Horton mentioned that \"planetary health was thought as an investigation for our political systems to knock down its obstacles.\" Within the same thought, he deepens his concern for issues such as racism, populism and xenophobia, topics that, in addition to being understood as social, should also be considered as risk to the health issue.<\/p>

Among the other positions held by the academic, he stands out as a founding member of the Academy of Medical Sciences and also a professor at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine; all this to defend justice towards human rights.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

El tambi\u00e9n reconocido como “editor activista” es considerado como uno de los defensores m\u00e1s comprometidos e influyentes del mundo a favor de la salud de la poblaci\u00f3n. Sus metas son claras: alcanzar agendas de debates y an\u00e1lisis que impacten en el contexto que atraviesan los sistemas de salud para marcar diferencia dentro de las sociedades. El Dr. Richard Horton ha demostrado ser un actor fundamental en la divulgaci\u00f3n de informaci\u00f3n m\u00e9dica tanto a profesionales como a la poblaci\u00f3n en general. Se ha ganado el respeto de sus colaboradores y contempor\u00e1neos a trav\u00e9s de una carrera de m\u00e1s de 40 a\u00f1os al servicio del p\u00fablico. El galardonado periodista recibir\u00e1 el Premio Roux 2019, que se otorga anualmente a individuos en la vanguardia de la innovaci\u00f3n en salud global. Dave Roux, fil\u00e1ntropo y empresario oriundo de Virginia describe as\u00ed el trabajo de Horton: \u201cRichard ha dado forma a la evoluci\u00f3n de las prioridades a trav\u00e9s de sus editoriales y comentarios semanales y mediante el patrocinio de innumerables comisiones sobre los problemas de salud vitales de nuestros d\u00edas\u201d. El doctor se preocupa, entre muchas cosas, por la calidad de vida de los ni\u00f1os y en los mecanismos que ata\u00f1en las esferas pol\u00edticas, acad\u00e9micas y sociales para forjar una equidad en el acceso de oportunidades para los servicios de salud p\u00fablica. Otro tema de relevancia que ha incluido en el imaginario p\u00fablico es el de la \u201csalud ambiental\u201d, misma que incorpora la salud p\u00fablica y su relaci\u00f3n con el medio ambiente. \u00c9l explica que la unidad de ambas es primordial y que el entendimiento de nuestra relaci\u00f3n con el planeta desembocar\u00e1 no s\u00f3lo en la mejora de la naturaleza, sino tambi\u00e9n de nuestra salud general como seres humanos. Horton mencion\u00f3 que \u201cla salud planetaria fue pensada como una indagaci\u00f3n para que nuestros sistemas pol\u00edticos, derriben sus obst\u00e1culos.\u201d Dentro del mismo pensamiento profundiza su preocupaci\u00f3n por temas como son el racismo, populismo y xenofobia, t\u00f3picos que adem\u00e1s de entenderse como sociales, deber\u00edan tambi\u00e9n considerarse como de riesgo para el tema de salud. Entre los otros puestos que ostenta el acad\u00e9mico destaca como miembro fundador de la Academia de Ciencias M\u00e9dicas y tambi\u00e9n profesor de la escuela de Higiene y Medicina Tropical en Londres; todo ello para defender la justicia hacia los derechos humanos.
