Health Promotion and Primary Prevention in 21 European Countries: A Comparative Overview of Key Policies, Approaches, Examples of Good Practice, and Gaps and Needs

This report presents an overview of the information presented in twenty-one country reports developed by organisations participating in the EU Joint Action CHRODIS PLUS: Implementing good practices for chronic diseases. This overview report presents a synthesised analysis of the key findings in the individual countries, including their health promotion and primary prevention ‘landscapes’ and contexts. Partner countries also gave examples of good practice and identified what they felt were gaps and needs in their countries to develop and maintain effective and efficient policy, programmes and practices.
