Dear Colleagues,
please let us inform you about activities and happenings in Healthy Cities, Towns and Regions in March and also provide information about selected activities and events, which will take place in the oncoming period.

I believe that this new HCCZ Newsletter will be for you an interesting and useful source of information and inspiration from Czech Healthy Cities and Regions.

World Health Day focused on food safety this year
The World Health Organisation (WHO) announced 7 April as World Health Day. The campaign, supported by Healthy Cities, focuses on one specific topic each year. This year the World Health Day topic is food safety. According to WHO information, food containing harmful bacteria, viruses, parasites or chemical substances are responsible for over 200 types of illness. The campaign endeavours to point out the fact that, particularly in our globalised world, it is necessary to ensure food safety during all steps in the long chain of proceeding of food from its point of origin to consumption. The Public Health Institute, which prepared a short instructional video and competition for students, is also a promoter of the event.
