Which way for housing and human settlements?

In order to clarify the housing and settlements component of the European health-for-all programme and to identify perceived priorities with a view to the preparation of training materials, members of WHO's Rural and Urban Development and Housing Network were invited to complete a questionnaire. The results are reported below. The questionnaire can be used in identifying local development priorities, comparing attitudes, and studying perceived needs. Intended as a tool for policy-makers, course organizers and public health professionals, it is available from the authors of the present article.
