Abstract

A review of recent progress towards the Regional targets set for Health for all in the European Region of WHO, as regards lifestyle and environmental factors. Tobacco consumption (in most countries), and alcohol drinking (mainly in countries with previous high consumption) show some improvement. Illicit drug use is emerging in new countries, although it appears to stabilise in previously affected areas. Despite considerable efforts on environmental factors, there remains a serious problem of communication with the public, and action is poorly coordinated; indicators for environmental health show little progress.
