Nancy Gell provided follow-up to our discussion today:

Here is a link for The 8th Global Conference on Health Promotion, Helsinki, Finland, 10-14 June 2013 where the concept of Health in All Policies was discussed: https://www.who.int/healthpromotion/conferences/8gchp/statement_2013/en/

From the website:

Health in All Policies is an approach to public policies across sectors that systematically takes into account the health implications of decisions, seeks synergies, and avoids harmful health impacts in order to improve population health and health equity. It improves accountability of policymakers for health impacts at all levels of policy-making. It includes an emphasis on the consequences of public policies on health systems, determinants of health and well-being.

And the Guide for HIAP from the APHA and PHI with more information on the approach: http://www.phi.org/resources/?resource=hiapguide

There's also a great graphic representation of what "Health in All Policies" does NOT look like, but I cannot get a PDF image to work for the Blog.  Inquire with Nancy if you'd like to see it.  Connie
