The State of Children's Health in Europe

The health status of the European population is supervised constantly through the national public health agencies in their respective countries and monitored by the several nongovernmental organizations dedicated to public health active in Europe.1 In particular, the European Union (EU) supervises the health of the population in its 28 member nations by means of the Directorate for Health and Food Safety.2 The Directorate bases its proposals and legislative interventions both on data from the single nations and the statistical analysis provided by Eurostat, the official statistical office of the EU, situated in Luxembourg, whose mission is to provide high-quality statistics for Europe.
