These health targets have been developed using different conceptual frameworks, and widely differing mechanisms for implementation and monitoring have been adopted. This review examines experience in setting and using national health goals and targets in five developed countries and regions about which published information is available. Overall, it appears that the potential of health goals and targets to influence national health policy, resource allocation and population health outcomes has not yet been achieved fully in the countries and regions examined. Most have achieved important successes in re-orienting health systems and in increasing health promotion activity. To date, only the US has had experience in using targets to guide public policy over an extended period, and here the evidence of effect is encouraging. In the 1990s a more systematic approach to the achievement of targets has been adopted, particularly in the US, the UK and Australia. In each case more explicit steps have been taken to link the achievement of targets to health system planning, management and, to a lesser extent, funding, and greater emphasis has been given to the need for all sectors of government to contribute to improving health of the population. Progress will need to be carefully monitored in these countries to identify the strengths and weaknesses of these approaches. © Oxford University Press Perspectives nationallicence health goals and targets nationallicence health policy nationallicence planning nationallicence population health nationallicence NUTBEAM DON National Centre for Health Promotion, Department of Public Health and Community Medicine, University of Sydney, Australia aut WISE MARILYN National Centre for Health Promotion, Department of Public Health and Community Medicine, University of Sydney, Australia aut Health Promotion International Oxford University Press 11/3(1996-09), 219-225 0957-4824 11:3<219 1996 11 heapro https://doi.org/10.1093/heapro/11.3.219 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI 1 research-article jats NATIONALLICENCE 856 40 https://doi.org/10.1093/heapro/11.3.219 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI NATIONALLICENCE 700 1- NUTBEAM DON National Centre for Health Promotion, Department of Public Health and Community Medicine, University of Sydney, Australia aut NATIONALLICENCE 700 1- WISE MARILYN National Centre for Health Promotion, Department of Public Health and Community Medicine, University of Sydney, Australia aut NATIONALLICENCE 773 0- Health Promotion International Oxford University Press 11/3(1996-09), 219-225 0957-4824 11:3<219 1996 11 heapro Metadata rights reserved CC BY-NC-4.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 nationallicence BK010053 XK010053 XK010000 NATIONALLICENCE NATIONALLICENCE NL-oxford
