World Health Organization (WHO)

Established in 1948 as the directing and coordinating authority on international health, the World Health Organization (WHO) in 1996 remained committed to the goal of "Health for all", representing, at a minimum, a level of health for all people, enabling them to work productively and to participate actively in the life of the community in which they live. WHO activities focused in particular on disease prevention and control; primary health care and nutrition; the health of specific population groups; health aspects of the environment, development and lifestyle; and support for health care, organization and management worldwide. Priorities for action included chronic conditions that were major causes of death or avoidable ill-health and disability.
