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. Investing in transport plays an important role in determining health throughout the life-course. The transport sector is crucial to opportunities for participation in society, sustainable development, preventing injuries and disease and promoting health as well as the quality and liveability of the environment. By working together, health and transport can contribute significantly to individuals, communities and societies, reduce inequalities and support human development and high-quality, liveable environments, not only improving good health and well-being but also enhancing sustainable transport and fostering healthy and resilient communities and economies.
