- W1772870400 abstract "This report focuses on the health of poor people living in rapidly growing cities in poor developing countries. The stated aims are to inform people about the squalid living conditions of the urban poor to advocate the application of primary health care principles in practice at all appropriate city and national agencies and institutions to explain key actions for assuring improvements in urban health and to focus attention on the urgent need to make health coverage comprehensive for all. An appropriate formula for solving urban health problems is summarized as follows: accomplish simple inexpensive acts with a proven impact conduct intersectoral activities involve people in their own health and treatment decisions tackle widespread urban poverty rather than small-scale experimental efforts and use a national strategy targeting the poor and applicable to national primary health care for all cities. The achievement of Health for All objectives can only be accomplished through the combined use of professional skills personal ability healthy environment and sensible choices in the use of scarce resources. One great need is for qualitative and quantitative information on the basic issues affecting the health of the urban poor and on information useful for stratified planning for urban health. Strong political will and coordination between sectors is important. Urban health problems are linked with levels of income water supply food and nutrition housing sanitation environmental pollution safety education and facilities. Growth is highest in urban areas and the expectation is for continued urban growth over the next decades. Attention to poverty and slums in urban areas was affirmed at the UNICEF/WHO meeting held in July 1983 and again with reference to health care strategies in Harare Zimbabwe in 1987. Redistribution of resources within the urban health system is necessary despite ignorance resistance of conservative groups or existing commitments. Ministries of health need to be strengthened with highly trained staff greater financial resources better control of health services and the ability to influence policy in other ministries and local government groups in fulfilling health priorities. The aim should be better and more equitable health care for most of the population." @default.
