Health
Each municipality must write an approach to improve the health of residents once every 4 years. The paper "Local Preventive Health Policy" contains the themes and goals that are central to Municipality of Zoetermeer in 2024-2027. In summary, we believe these are the most important:
- A healthy generation, where we make an effort to provide a healthy lifestyle for children and youth.
- A healthy environment to live in, including clean(er) air, good walking and biking trails and more green space.
- Strong and energetic seniors, including by exercising, preventing falls, eating healthy and preventing loneliness.
How are we going to do this?
We look at health in a broad way. That means we not only look at how a person is doing physically but also, for example, mentally and socially. We focus on preventing illness as much as possible. We collaborate with other organizations to achieve more. And we ask residents to contribute ideas about what is needed to live a healthy life close to home.
Implementation Program
The plan "Integral Working for a Healthy City" and the Implementation Agenda to the Local Preventive Health Policy Memorandum 2024-2027 together constitute all the activities to be implemented for the preventive health policy in the coming years.
