Multisectoral and intersectoral action for improved health and well-being for all: mapping of the WHO European Region

Achieving the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, and the strategic objectives of Health 2020, requires an innovative and new model of governance. A mapping exercise was undertaken by the Governance for Health Programme to identify instances of multisectoral and intersectoral action for improved health and well-being for all and to share best practices for multisectoral and intersectoral health and well-being policy development and implementation across the WHO European Region. Case stories, or narratives of good practice, detailing successful multisectoral and intersectoral initiatives were collected through consultations in 36 Member States of the WHO European Region. The case stories are collected and analysed in this report.
