The Danish Healthy Cities Network

The Danish Healthy Cities Network is a network of cities (municipalities) and regions (counties) politically committed to mutual cooperation in order to strengthen and develop the field of public health locally. 2/3 are members, which is 68 out of 98 municipalities and 2 out of 5 regions.
Being a member of the network means participating in a professional forum with focus on knowledge sharing and development of health promotion policies and activities in municipalities and counties. The Danish Healthy Cities Network aims to be a valued partner in the field of health professions both on a national and an international level.
Since 1991 the members have worked together in developing new methods, carrying out courses and conferences and pubilishing recommendation. Useful and efficient tools for working with promoting public health have successfully been developed through the network. An annual network conference, study tours and conferences are common activities where both professionals and politicians are invited.
