20th National Health Promotion Conference

Our individual choices in areas such as diet, transportation and housing affect our health status. However, the health of the population depends above all on the environment and the framework conditions in which people live. This year's conference will therefore focus on the important role of cities and municipalities in health promotion and prevention: they can create an environment that encourages exercise, promotes encounters and offers opportunities for relaxation. In this way, they strengthen the physical and mental well-being of their residents at the local level.

One focus of the conference is on children, young people and the elderly, who have a particularly close bond with their place of residence and their neighborhood. The relationship of cities and municipalities with their cantons will also be addressed, as they implement the cantonal action programs, provide various offers for the Health Promotion and support the communities with appropriate tools and platforms. For this purpose, the conference will draw on current studies, political statements and numerous field reports.

In 2019, the conference program will once again include events in plenaries, sub-plenaries and workshops, from which participants can put together their own individual program. In addition, the generous surroundings of the Stade de Suisse will provide ample opportunity for exchange throughout the event.
