Ensuring good health and promoting well-being at all stages of the life cycle is essential to sustainable development.

It highlights important concepts and indicators to evaluate the status of health and well-being. The chapter also reflects on the progress made over the years, existing challenges, and the way forward, to create a sustainable and equitable health system.
