⚖️ In 2020, 1.8 million deaths from non-communicable diseases before the age of 75 were considered avoidable in the WHO European Region: about 60% were due to preventable causes. 📉 The report analyzes trends in tobacco, alcohol, physical activity, obesity, and diabetes since 2010, as well as the adoption of prevention and care policies. 📒 Avoidable mortality, risk factors and policies for tackling noncommunicable diseases in the WHO European Region ✍️ WHO Regional Office for Europe, Copenhagen.

It helps to place actions on tobacco, alcohol, diet, or physical activity within a common strategy for reducing chronic diseases, rather than in isolated interventions. It also reminds that action must focus on living conditions and environments, and not just on individual behaviors, involving multiple sectors and civil society (p. 65). Data concerning France allows for situating national issues in the European context (annex 3). A resource to support a project, mobilize partners, or inform a diagnosis, to be complemented by local data: the report does not allow to determine alone the priorities of a territory nor to precisely choose the modalities of intervention. 🇬🇧: Avoidable mortality, risk factors and policies for tackling noncommunicable diseases in the WHO European Region - https://www.pratiquesensante.com/en/blog/practices-15/avoidable-mortality-risk-factors-and-policies-for-tackling-noncommunicable-diseases-in-the-who-european-region-6285 #️⃣ #pratiquesensante #NonCommunicableDiseases #AvoidableMortality #PrimaryPrevention #WHOEurope #RiskFactors #HealthInequalities #HealthInAllPolicies #pratiquesensante #MaladiesNonTransmissibles #MortalitéÉvitable #PréventionPrimaire #OMSEurope #FacteursDeRisque #InégalitésDeSanté #SantéDansToutesLesPolitiques (translated)
