Folder The Agenda 2030 for Sustainable Development
The UN Resolution UN A/Res/70/L1 "Transforming our World: the Agenda 2030 for Sustainable Development," adopted in September 2015, outlined an ambitious vision for a new era of global development from 2016 - 2030. The Agenda, seen as a universal plan of action for people, planet, peace, prosperity, and partnership, serves as a call to action for all countries and stakeholders to form collaborative partnerships in order to address the most pressing social, economic, environmental, and governance challenges of our time.
Folder Urban health
The Region of the Americas is one of the most urbanized regions in the developing world. The health consequences of evolving standards of urban life present enormous challenges, as well as opportunities for visionary changes, for urban populations of the Americas.
Folder Workers' Health
1. strengthen regulatory frameworks and the leadership of the health sector among Member States;
2. promote workers' health and the development of safe, productive and healthy workplaces;
3. prevent and register diseases, injuries and deaths at work;
4. achieve access to universal health; and
5. support critical economic sectors resulting from the impact they have on workers' health.
We have a broad interactivity with work and health stakeholders to implement the Plan of Action on Workers' Health 2015-2025, with an approach on Health in All Policies. Thus, we can respond to the national, regional and global priorities defined by PAHO/WHO for workers' health, as well as to contribute to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 1, S DG 3 and SDG 8.
