  2. Tasks • Identify measurements based on epidemiological and public health criteria: • Burden of disease • Public health criteria • Subpopulations of interest

  3. Topics’ selection criteria • Criteria of selection of topics evidence-based and based on ECHI list: • Comprehensive; • Meeting user needs – important public health domains; • Being innovative as well as based on previous knowledge; • Using Health Monitoring Programme and Public Health Programme results.

  4. Criteria for recommendations • Recommendations based on: • ECHI list; • Other Projects of the Public Health Programme ; • EHRM; • WHO STEPS.

  7. Criteria for inclusion

  8. Approach • Identify ‘core’ measurements and additional measurements • Support a flexible model where elements can be added as requested (modular) • Adaptable to disease-oriented (e.g. CVD) or population-oriented (e.g. elderly) HES. • Final product flexible enough for its constituent elements to be adaptable to different HESs.
