The adoption of Health 2020, the European policy framework for health and well-being, marked a shift towards a values-based approach to health. This new paradigm has resulted in the promotion of a number of promising values-based health concepts that are difficult to measure and report on. In response to this challenge, the WHO Regional Office for Europe convened an expert group to investigate ways of enhancing Health 2020 monitoring and reporting.

The third expert group meeting was convened in September 2017 to review the action plan and discuss draft outputs, to identify two further priority concepts from the Health 2020 values base for review, and to discuss next steps for developing qualitative and quantitative measurement strategies for the priority concepts. This report outlines the recommendations made by the expert group in relation to these objectives.
