A new relationship between people and the health care system
This is our health is designed to reshape how people and the health system work together.
It focuses on how people manage their health day to day and what they are willing to do differently in practice. It recognises that most of what shapes our health happens in everyday settings, like at home, with family and in our communities, not just when we use health and care services.
Taking Part
This is our health is a public conversation about how we can work together to help people in Northern Ireland live longer, healthier and more fulfilling lives. The programme was launched in April by Health Minister Mike Nesbitt.
You can take part online by answering a few questions, or in person at the local events listed below.
