One for All and All for Health

  • Why is HiAP an important and effective concept for jurisdictions to promote population health and health equity?
  • What models can jurisdictions use to implement HiAP and what are the critical success factors?
  • What will the future of HiAP need to look like?

This report looks at the concept of Health in All Policies (HiAP) and its potential to configure governmental stakeholders to promote population health and health equity in the face of growing, long-term health challenges like non-communicable diseases, anti-microbial resistance, and climate change. It is increasingly clear that interventions to effectively address such challenges cannot be delivered by the health sector in isolation. Instead, such challenges must be addressed intersectorally with the variety of governmental stakeholders that have an influence on the wider determinants of health, including from diverse sectors such as education, food, and urban planning, among many others. Currently, the configuration of many policymaking contexts presents political and economic obstacles toward achieving intersectoral collaboration.

This report explores how jurisdictions can implement HiAP to unlock manifold benefits for health policymaking by drawing on examples from the Finnish, Australian and Saudi contexts and considers how, in the future, HiAP will need to embrace stakeholders beyond government to become a truly whole-system endeavor.
