Health is a fundamental characteristic that affects the well-being of the citizens of a society. Its importance is catalytic both for the daily life of citizens and for the economy. The increase in citizens unable to work due to health problems for example, can have major consequences on productivity, planning and completion of critical projects for the society. It is obviously extremely important to ensure health through both legislation and the adoption of appropriate policies and the necessary funding.
Various political proposals have been proposed for the overall improvement of citizens' health. One of the most recent and widely known proposals is that of the World Health Organization that presented the Health2020 policy framework, with the aim of improving health through its adoption. In this thesis we have collected the values for some useful and critical variables for the 27 member countries of the European Union and the United Kingdom. We use descriptive statistics and statistical inference methodologies to arrive at answers to the research questions that have been posed. Data were drawn from the World Bank, Eurostat and OECD.
