A future without preventable chronic disease.
To improve the long-term health and wellbeing of the people in Ireland by:
Prevention does not just mean campaigns or early detection of disease. It also means stopping these preventable diseases developing in the first place. This is called primary prevention. To address the causes of chronic disease a major shift to primary prevention is required.
Our main goal is to effect change in the key policy areas of tobacco, alcohol, unhealthy diet and physical inactivity. We do this by advocating for the WHO best buys primary prevention policy solutions and highlighting the impact industry tactics have in delaying public health measures
