THE ALLIANCE
[ APPLICATION PROCEDURES ]
The Alliance
for Healthy Cities is an international network aiming at protecting and
enhancing the health of city dwellers. The Alliance is a group of cities and other
organizations that try to achieve the goal through an approach called
Healthy Cities with the close collaboration with the World Health
Organization. We believe that international cooperation is an effective and
efficient tool to achieve the goal. We also promote the interaction of
people who are in the front lines of health and quality of life issues.
It is now expected that local governments from various countries and
regions will participate in the Alliance
as a mechanism for improving their capacity to respond to health and
quality of life needs through the Healthy Cities approach. The Alliance will provide
opportunities to share experiences of Healthy Cities,
recognize and promote outstanding practices and innovations within Healthy
Cities, mobilize resources for Healthy Cities, and develop new knowledge
and technology for the advancement of Healthy Cities through international
collaboration.
