Objective: Review the limitations in cross‐sectoral health outcomes research and suggest a future research agenda. Data Sources, Study Design, Data Collection: Literature review and workshop discussion. Principal Findings: The research evidence that would aid public and private policy makers in answering the question the title poses is quite limited. Conclusions: Much more evidence from diverse disciplines is needed, and key areas are suggested. Criteria for progress by 2010 are proposed.
