The World Health Report 2002: Reducing Risks, Promoting Healthy Life (World Health Report)

Description

The World Health Report 2002 measures the amount of disease, disability and health in the world today that can be attributed to some of the most important risks to human health. Even more importantly, it also calculates how much of this present burden could be avoided in the next 10 years.
The World Health Report 2002 represents one of the largest research projects ever undertaken by WHO, in collaboration with experts worldwide. Dr Gro Harlem Brundtland, Director-General of WHO, describes this report as "a wake up call to the global community".
The report quantifies some of the most important risks to human health, and examines a range of methods to reduce them. The ultimate goal is to help governments of all countries to lower major risks to health, and thereby raise the healthy life expectancy of their populations.
The risk factors range from underweight and unsafe water, sanitation and hygiene to high blood pressure, raised cholesterol and obesity.
The report's findings give an intriguing - and alarming - insight into not just the current causes of disease and death and the factors underlying them, but also into human patterns of living and how some may be changing around the world while others remain dangerously unchanged.
