Description

INHERIT is about stimulating effective inter-sectoral policies and interventions that promote health and well being across the social gradient by tackling key environmental stressors and related inequalities in the areas of living (green space and energy efficient housing), moving (active transport) and consuming (food consumption and production).

It aims to encourage mankind to modify our current lifestyles, characterized by a "take, make, consume, dispose" model of growth, to formulate scenarios for a more sustainable future, and to design, implement and test inter-sectoral initiatives to achieve the desired change.
