Sažetak
It is widely known that population health is not only a product of the health sector activities, but to a large extent determined by living conditions and other societal and economic factors. It is also evidence that health status is related to income, education and employment. The state of health is a factor which influences social cohesion and security, employability, and as a result, the competitiveness. Its development has an impact on the whole of society and economy, since a longer and healthier life gs hand in hand with increased employment and the increase in the years spent actively.In 2007, the European Commission accepted the New Hungary Development Plan (NHDP) (1), with several areas to be developed referring to the health sector. Health promotion and especially the “setting approach†got a great emphasis in the framework of public health programme. Improving health and encouraging health-conscious behaviour is one of the best financed programme packs among the public health operational programme. The awareness raising and promotion of health conscious behaviour for wide groups of society, as well as the communication of health risk factors can be most efficiently performed by transferring knowledge which forms the correct attitudes. The formation of correct attitudes should be started as early as childhood for wide groups of society and with the simultaneous involvement of several generations. In order to achieve this, the EU and the Hungarian Government support health development programmes, campaigns, early childhood programmes and course material development, the implementation of which will make health conscious behaviour the generally accepted norm (active life-style, smoking quitting campaign, etc.), strengthen the responsibility of individuals regarding their own health, which is the token of all further measures being able to succeed.
