BASIC INFO (for more see left menu)
In 1988, the World Health Organization (WHO) initiated the international Healthy Cities Project, and invited major European Cities to participate. In twenty years, more than 1300 Healthy Cities, Towns a Regions have joined the Project throughout Europe.
After 1989, several municipalities in the Czech Republic started to implement the ideas of the Project. In 1994, eleven active cities formed an association titled the Healthy Cities of the Czech Republic (HCCZ).

HCCZ is presently the only association of Czech municipalities that stipulates in its statutes to consistently work towards sustainable development, health and the quality of living in cities, municipalities and regions of the Czech Republic.
