Hanze is committed to a healthy lifestyle and living environment in the Northern Netherlands. We strive for positive health and resilience, for everyone at their own level. In a suitable and inviting environment (buildings, layout of neighbourhoods, range of shops, food and eating environments, etc.). We want to create opportunities for people to become more socially active, reduce stress and increase self-confidence. Our approach focuses on public health and prevention, with attention for the entire chain, from health to care. We focus on strengthening health and acting preventively, aiming to promote the health of everyone, regardless of their situation.
