Abstract

The consortium gesundheitsziele.de develops, together with all relevant actors in health care, exemplary national health targets and recommends concrete measures to achieve these goals. Implementation takes place based on voluntary agreements of the actors. The success of gesundheitsziele.de is assessed yearly based on the activities undertaken by the actors in order to achieve the six health targets. Evaluation of the health target "Reduce tobacco consumption" shows that numerous interventions were undertaken in 2008 geared towards not only the promotion of quitting, prevention of take-up or protection against passive smoking, but also the fostering of effective tobacco control policies. The number of behavioural, individual-oriented interventions is almost twice as high as the number of structural/legislative measures.
