On 13–15 December 2021, WHO will hold the 10th Global Conference on Health Promotion. The virtual conference is organized by the World Health Organization (WHO) with the support of the United Arab Emirates, United Nations agencies and partners. It will mark the first time that WHO has used well-being as the theme of a major conference. Discussions will focus on the contributions that health promotion can make to well-being in the broad areas of people, the planet and prosperity, culminating in a high-level political statement recommending how governments can use health promotion to advance well-being.
The conference objectives are to:
- discuss how to extend health promotion to advance well-being and equity, building on evidence and experience, to foster healthier populations.
- identify realistic interventions for health promotion and well-being to accelerate progress in achieving the SDGs.
- emphasize the role of health promotion in public health emergency preparedness and response, and seize opportunities to build healthier, fairer societies.
- explore innovative health promotion approaches to enable societies and communities to flourish.
