Building infrastructures for health promotion at supersettings level
Summary
This task focuses on the supersetting approach, which is a further development of the setting approach. It considers the significance of integrated and coordinated actions of municipalities together with a participatory approach, in order to attain intersectoral synergies, sustainable impact of setting interventions, and a relevant policy response in terms of health in all policies. This task is focusing on the necessary infrastructure for the establishment of a municipal supersetting.
Introduction
As a starting point, various reviews will be carried out:
- Identification and description of relevant infrastructures for health promotion and prevention as well as for Health in All Policies
- Tools and methods for the establishment of supersetting measures and Health in All Policies
- Tools for the evaluation/assessment of supersetting measures and Health in All Policies.
Then, the pilots from other tasks in this work package will be supported and advised in setting up supersetting measures and strategies including a Health in All Policies approach and are motivated to participate in exchange formats that aim to share their experiences and learn from each other’s implementations.
At the end of the project, the main outcome should be practice-oriented recommendations for the establishment of a supersetting approach and Health in All Policies, and a guide to support municipalities in initiating them. In addition to recommendations, the guide should also contain a compilation of tools and be made available to relevant municipal stakeholders in Europe.
Specific objectives
The specific objectives for this task are the following:
- Definition and identification of important infrastructures that are needed for Health Promotion at supersetting level in European countries.
- Identification of suitable tools and methods to establish a methodology and strategies for building infrastructures for Health Promotion at supersettings level and consider the Health in All Policies approach throughout European countries
- Sharing international experience on community participation and co-production for health as well as community participation information systems at local level and Health in All Policies.
- Sharing international experience (opportunities and challenges) on tools for the planning and implementation of supersetting measures.
- Investigating and defining criteria to monitor and evaluate infrastructures for Health Promotion at supersettings level.
- Sharing international experience on evaluation tools of infrastructures for Health Promotion at local level.
- Monitoring the development of infrastructures for Health Promotion at supersettings level and the consideration of Health in All Policies in other tasks in this work package..
- Employing evaluation tools for infrastructures for Health Promotion at supersettings level and the consideration of Health in All Policies in other tasks in this work package.
- Developing actions to improve evaluation of health promotion interventions at local level, with a focus on improving the local interventions in other tasks in this work package.
- Developing practical recommendations (e.g. a guide) for action on infrastructures for Health Promotion at supersettings level and developing a guide of recommended and implemented tools from different European countries.
