Cartagena, Tuesday, September 12.

The Municipal Group of Citizens in Cartagena will present in the next plenary session a motion for the City Council to initiate the necessary procedures to enable them to join the National Health System's (NHS) Health Promotion and Prevention Strategy.

Accession entails in the first phase two key actions: the creation of an intersectoral table and the identification and communication of community resources for health promotion and prevention in the municipality.

Until August 28, 2017, last update date, 125 municipalities are adhered to the strategy, and 104 are in process.

The Ministry of Health, Social Services and Equality, together with the Autonomous Communities and scientific societies, designed this strategy, which was approved by the SNS Interterritorial Council on December 18, 2013, with the objective of achieving years of good health and free of disability and is developed within the framework of the Strategy for the Approach of Chronicity in the SNS and is valid until 2020.

The objective of local implementation is the progressive development of projects and actions aimed at promoting healthy habits and states, prevention of diseases, injuries and disabilities, through a comprehensive framework on factors such as physical activity, food, tobacco, alcohol, and emotional well-being;

taking into account the population context.

The measure would involve the coordination of all administrative and associative resources, covering all sectors related to health and avoiding existing duplications.

In addition, a wide dissemination of good practices and healthy habits would be carried out, sensitizing and training the people of Cartagena.

The spokesperson for Citizens in Cartagena, Manuel Padín, has reported that another of the objectives pursued by his group with this accession is the possibility to opt for the lines of aid and subsidies that the Ministry grants to the municipalities attached to the implementation of health programs, which cover a maximum of 55 percent of their cost, "we have been saying for months: Cartagena has lived isolated for decades and has kept out of all these channels of collaboration and aid, and Citizens are making a great effort to reverse this situation ".

"The local level is essential for the implementation of this strategy, due to its direct influence on the health of the population. Although it is true that a good part of this matter is not local competence, the services that it does provide in this area, this Strategy is a good opportunity that we can not pass up to coordinate efforts to promote health and prevention among all levels, sectors and actors involved, "explained the mayor of the orange formation.
