Israel
The Healthy Israel 2020 initiative was created by the Ministry of Health to define Israeli policy in the areas of disease prevention and health promotion for the coming years. It will establish and prioritise objectives, quantitative targets and interventional strategies necessary to improve health and reduce disparities within the population. The initiative is based on Health21, the European Region version of the World Health Organisation's Health for All initiative and on the Healthy People 2010 initiative of the US Department of Health and Human Services.
