The Health 2020 policy framework has been adopted by all Member States of the WHO European Region in order to address Europe’s great social and health challenges, calling upon the health sector to reach out to, and work with, all the various sectors and parties in the continuous work of improving people’s health and well-being. More equal societies are happier, healthier and wealthier. By working together, the health and social sectors can contribute to improving the living and working conditions of individuals, families and communities in the European Region, reduce inequalities and support human development, not only improving good health and well-being but also fostering healthy and resilient communities and economies.
