Supporting countries to implement and monitor urban health policies
WHO supports national and sub-national governments in shaping, implementing, monitoring and evaluating their policies to promote health and well-being in cities and urban areas. Through provision of technical support with relevant guidance and data, WHO helps Member States to put global-level norms and strategies into practice on the ground to bring significant improvements in the health of urban populations. WHO’s technical support for countries has been designed to be delivered in coherent, effective and region- and country-specific manners.
