The Potential of Cognitive Mapping in Planning Health Provision
Abstract
The World Health Organization′s project “Health for All in 2000” sets levels for future health care and provision for member states. In the UK a Healthy Cities Network has been established and many towns and cities are actively considering ways of working towards attaining these levels. This involves a number of different organizations and agencies working together to build models showing all the factors and relationships which affect the health of a community. The study aims to assess the potential of cognitive mapping techniques in providing not only a consensus view, but also a better understanding of those factors and relationships.
