Our actions
We create, collect and share evidence on the impact on health of these ‘Beyond Health’ factors such as the economic system, emerging technologies, and issues of social justice and ethics.
We identify and analyse local initiatives that aim at creating healthy communities as part of our horizon scanning activities.
We make linkages with two broad sets of organizations outside health:
- systems thinking organizations – primarily in the area of developing sustainable resilient communities and society
- analytics thinking organisations – focusing on competence/tools and methods, in such areas as cybernetics, participative democracy and community empowerment.
We engage in conversations with key opinion leaders and politicians about the interconnections between health and other systems.
As a network organisation, we connect health sector players with other initiatives/sectors/organisations.
Through EC funded projects and via alliances with other NGOs, we formulate recommendations on how EU and local policies could further the goal of healthy societies and healthy citizens.
We communicate about “Beyond Health” through events, podcasts projects and collaborations.
