What is the Public Health Dashboard?
The Public Health Dashboard provides interactive statistics on public health in Iceland. Emphasis is placed on publishing Public Health Indicators. The aim is to make it easier for the government, health services, and the general public to monitor trends and changes in public health.
To support public health work throughout the country, including the work of the Health Promoting Society and Health Promoting schools, all indicators are calculated on health districts and the nine largest municipalities.
