Making Health for All Policies

7 March 2023 12:00 – 13:00 CET

WEBINAR 07 March 2023, 12:00-13:00 CET

Health for All Policies can make a powerful contribution to sustainable development. This is achieved by targeted investment in health and health systems, which not only improves population heath but can also produce co-benefits for other sectors. Investment in health and health systems helps other sectors achieve their specific goals. Health for All Policies does not ask other sectors what they can do for health rather what health can do to help other sectors. The potential for cooperation is long ranging from greening healthcare, financial protection against poverty, the promotion of gender equality, or investment in health systems for economic growth.

Emphasizing the co-benefit of Health for All Policies makes intersectoral action more appealing to policy-makers.

So what are the big health- and co-benefits? how can we support intersectoral action? What are the ways of making Health for All Policies? How can health co-benefits support progress towards SDGs? Join us to find out!
