Who we are

The Copenhagen Declaration on Health Policy, 1994

Available in:

The Conference agreed to refer this Copenhagen Declaration to the Standing Committee of the WHO Regional Committee for Europe for consideration and preparation of a draft resolution to be submitted to the Regional Committee at its forty-fifth session.


We, the delegations of the Member States in the European Region of the World Health Organization, meeting in Copenhagen from 5 to 9 December 1994, acutely aware that our societies stand at an historic crossroads, pledge ourselves to promote and protect the health of our peoples as a fundamental value of our societies.
