An online hub dedicated to whole-school approaches to health and wellbeing.
The project also aims to integrate health and climate goals and the ‘triple-win’ outcomes of whole-school approaches to health: better educational outcomes, more equity and helping the environment.
"The project's multi-sectoral setting provides a prime opportunity to work with a wide range of experts."
Schools4Health strives to introduce, strengthen and sustain the adoption of a whole-of-school approach to health and wellbeing. It aims to raise awareness among policy makers and build the capacities of administrators and school staff across Europe to help mainstream this approach.
The project is focusing on the areas of healthy food, physical activity and mental health. All training materials, including a concise tool for policy makers and for practitioners will be included on this online hub dedicated to Schools for Health and Well-being. An advocacy and information campaign and other dissemination strategies will draw attention to the value of health promoting schools to resilience and recovery efforts in the face of COVID-19.
The 3-year project, led by EuroHealthNet, is EU-wide in scale with partners from Belgium, Denmark, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Latvia, the Netherlands, Romania, Slovenia and Spain.
