Organisation mondiale de la santé. L'action intersectorielle requise pour un véritable développement sanitaire doit se situer au niveau local; c'est pourquoi l'OPS(Organisation panaméricaine de la Santé)/OMS s’attache à favoriser la création "d’emplacements sains"(communautés, lieux de travail, écoles, etc.). Ce mouvement doit s’appuyer sur une information et, à cette fin, on a lancé en 1996 une publication non technique portant le titre Perspectives in health. 1, record 9, French, - Perspectives%20in%20health
