<http://bit.ly/1DTSjj6>The World Health Organization (WHO) calls on 
enhanced global efforts to improve health in some of the world’s poorest 
and most vulnerable communities by tackling the root causes of disease 
and health inequalities. In order to address this and to spur up action, 
raise awareness and facilitate implementation of a Health in All 
Policies (HiAP) approach WHO launched this week a Health in All Policies 
training manual 
<http://who.int/social_determinants/publications/health-policies-manual/en/>. 


This manual is a training resource to increase understanding of the 
importance of Health in All Policies among health and other 
professionals. The material will form the basis of 2- and 3-day 
workshops, which will: build capacity to promote, implement and evaluate 
HiAP; encourage engagement and collaboration across sectors; facilitate 
the exchange of experiences and lessons learned; promote regional and 
global collaboration on HiAP; and promote dissemination of skills to 
develop training courses for trainers.
