This document provides practical advice for implementing multisectoral collaboration for healthy public policies. Health in All Policies (HiAP) approaches have typically played an important role in advocating for, and fostering action on, the social determinants of health (SDH) to advance health equity. This document summarizes key related WHO literature with a focus on providing an overview of core HiAP concepts and concrete advice on fostering collaborative relationships between different parts of government for healthy public policies. It provides practical examples on four topics (“the four pillars of HiAP”): 1) Governance and accountability; 2) Leadership at all levels; 3) Ways of working; and 4) Resources, financing and capabilities. The content is targeted to public health professionals who are advocating for policy action on SDH or who are dealing with specific policy initiatives requiring cross-government collaboration.

The purpose of this manual is to provide a resource for training to increase understanding of Health in All Policies (HiAP) by health and other professionals. It is anticipated that the material in this manual will form the basis of two- or three-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. The training manual target audience is universities, public health institutes, non-governmental organizations, training institutions in government and intergovernmental organizations. The training is structured to target professionals from middle to senior levels of policy-making and government from all sectors influencing health. These include health, employment, housing, economic development, finance, trade, environment and sustainability, social security, education, agriculture and urban planning. Depending on the content, it would also be advisable to include participants from civil society. The manual includes 12 training modules consisting of interactive lectures and group activities.

In the context of the larger requirements about what needs to be done regarding increased awareness and knowledge on HiAP, this policy briefing has humble aims. It aims to contribute to a growing familiarity with the Health in All Policies concepts by pointing to specific aspects of intersectoral and, in some cases, Health in All Policies experiences. It aims to provide ministries of health with a practical policy overview of key issues and approaches. Its specific target audience within ministries of health is professionals or high-level decision-makers, who are not experts on determinants of health but who have responsibilities for dealing with complex problems where HiAP is required to address the social determinants of health inequities.

Evidence indicates that actions within four main themes (early child development fair employment and decent work social protection and the living environment) are likely to have the greatest impact on the social determinants of health and health inequities. A systematic search and analysis of recommendations and policy guidelines from intergovernmental organizations and international bodies identified practical policy options for action on social determinants within these four themes. Policy options focused on early childhood education and care; child poverty; investment strategies for an inclusive economy; active labour market programmes; working conditions; social cash transfers; affordable housing; and planning and regulatory mechanisms to improve air quality and mitigate climate change. Applying combinations of these policy options alongside effective governance for health equity should enable WHO European Region Member States to reduce health inequities and synergize efforts to achieve the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

In the United States, some populations suffer from far greater disparities in health than others. Those disparities are caused not only by fundamental differences in health status across segments of the population, but also because of inequities in factors that impact health status, so-called determinants of health. Only part of an individual's health status depends on his or her behavior and choice; community-wide problems like poverty, unemployment, poor education, inadequate housing, poor public transportation, interpersonal violence, and decaying neighborhoods also contribute to health inequities, as well as the historic and ongoing interplay of structures, policies, and norms that shape lives. When these factors are not optimal in a community, it does not mean they are intractable: such inequities can be mitigated by social policies that can shape health in powerful ways. Communities in Action: Pathways to Health Equity seeks to delineate the causes of and the solutions to health inequities in the United States. This report focuses on what communities can do to promote health equity, what actions are needed by the many and varied stakeholders that are part of communities or support them, as well as the root causes and structural barriers that need to be overcome.

As the culminating volume in the DCP3 series, volume 9 will provide an overview of DCP3 findings and methods, a summary of messages and substantive lessons to be taken from DCP3, and a further discussion of cross-cutting and synthesizing topics across the first eight volumes. The introductory chapters (1-3) in this volume take as their starting point the elements of the Essential Packages presented in the overview chapters of each volume. First, the chapter on intersectoral policy priorities for health includes fiscal and intersectoral policies and assembles a subset of the population policies and applies strict criteria for a low-income setting in order to propose a "highest-priority" essential package. Second, the chapter on packages of care and delivery platforms for universal health coverage (UHC) includes health sector interventions, primarily clinical and public health services, and uses the same approach to propose a highest priority package of interventions and policies that meet similar criteria, provides cost estimates, and describes a pathway to UHC.
