Il presente libro bianco definisce una nuova strategia comunitaria in materia sanitaria fino al 2013 per fronteggiare problemi sempre più pronunciati per la salute della popolazione come l’invecchiamento, le minacce transfrontaliere per la salute o le malattie legate a stili di vita poco salubri. Questa strategia intende in questo modo rafforzare, in un quadro strategico unico, la cooperazione comunitaria nei settori nei quali gli Stati membri non possono agire soli, garantire una maggior comprensione della salute a livello europeo e globale e riservare più spazio alla salute nell’insieme delle politiche. A tal fine, il libro bianco propone quattro principi e tre obiettivi strategici per i prossimi anni.
