Healthy public [policies]... can take many forms across a community to improve population health and quality of life, but are not necessarily developed by the health sector, as they focus on broader structural and social determinants of health rather than downstream healthcare services. Healthy public policy improves housing, living conditions(education, food security, childcare, transportation), livelihoods, and social and health services. 3, record 1, English, - healthy%20public%20policy
