Factsheets on health-enhancing physical activity in the 28 European Union member states of the WHO European region

World Health Organization (WHO) (2015). Factsheets on health-enhancing physical activity in the 28 European Union member states of the WHO European region. Copenhagen: WHO Regional Office for Europe.

The aim of this document is to give an overview of information on selected surveillance and monitoring physical activity indicators in the 28 European Union Member States of the WHO European Region. It describes selected indicators, data collection procedures and data sources used to summarize some information included in the individual factsheets. The monitoring and surveillance section focuses on physical activity prevalence and national monitoring systems, including types of activity and modes of transport. The policy response section addresses major adopted policy documents, health-enhancing physical activity coordination, target groups and national awareness. This document intends to support the Member States in sharing successes and exchanging experiences and to provide inspiration for further development and implementation, along with closer collaboration among countries in relation to data collection and policy developments. This process will also map the pathway for future work on the part of WHO and the European Commission in providing targeted support and advice to Member States in this increasingly important area of public health.
