A Healthy Living Environment

One of the core frameworks for Aletta’s working model is the Health Capabilities Model. In line with this model, we believe in a Health in All Policies (HiAP) approach. The different social, cultural and physical contexts of people’s living environment have a large influence on health, and adapting the living environment for healthier living can support in maintaining a healthy population. A healthy living environment for all supports the prevention of disease and the decrease of health inequalities, one of the big problems in (public) health.

This Aletta theme will be worked out in more detail in collaboration with researchers from different disciplines in our network. If you are interested and would like to contribute to the theme description, please contact us at aletta rug.nl
