The Initiative has since grown into a network of 12 Member States in the WHO European Region with populations of 2 million or less.

Second European Programme of Work 2026–2030 (EPW2)
The Second European Programme of Work (EPW2) is a five-year strategic framework (2026-2030) agreed by all Member States in the European Region to guide collective action towards a shared vision that all people live healthier, longer lives, with health safeguarded as a universal commitment. It builds on the first European Programme of Work, 2020–2025, and contributes to global health initiatives, including WHO’s Fourteenth General Programme of Work and the Sustainable Development Goals.
Our work in the Region

RHN is committed to the implementation of Agenda 2030 and the European Programme of Work (EPW), 2020 –2025. The Network is instrumental in efforts “to support local living environments that enable health and well-being”.
