Our well-being is influenced by factors beyond the realm of healthcare services, encompassing a wide array of sectors. Health for All Policies revolutionizes the discourse on inter-sectoral collaboration, shifting the focus from solely prioritizing health and the healthcare sector to one that emphasizes co-benefits. This transformative approach harnesses the Sustainable Development Goals as a guiding framework, identifying goals across various sectors and consolidating evidence along two critical axes. The first axis explores the profound impact of enhanced health status on other Sustainable Development Goals, such as improved educational and employment outcomes. The second axis delves into the influence of health systems and policies on other sectors.
The core premise of the Health for All Policies approach advocated in this book is an urgent call to prioritize health improvement not only for its own sake but also to achieve objectives that extend beyond the realm of health. It urges the healthcare sector to enhance its understanding and actively shape its influence on the world beyond the provision of healthcare services. This approach recognizes the interconnectedness of various domains and the potential for holistic and sustainable development.
Moreover, this title is also accessible as Open Access on Cambridge Core, ensuring widespread access to valuable insights and knowledge. By embracing the principles of Health for All Policies, we can strive for a healthier and more equitable world, where the well-being of individuals and communities is nurtured and sustained across multiple sectors.
