Abstract
This Health Evidence Network (‎HEN)‎ report discusses the reasons for success or failure in implementing disease prevention or health promotion programmes. Many of these programmes are directed at the health of children and young people because they can prevent both immediate problems (‎mortality and morbidity)‎ and long-term problems. However, even where there is evidence to support such public health interventions, implementation in different settings and countries has met with varying degrees of effectiveness and sustainability. The research evidence shows that the most effective programmes for children and young people are carried out at the government level, supported by society in general, and promote national policies to decrease poverty and increase social equality. HEN, initiated and coordinated by the WHO Regional Office for Europe, is an information service for public health and health care decision-makers in the WHO European Region. Other interested parties might also benefit from HEN.
