[Dialogue on the local implementation of the Prevention and Health Promotion Strategy of the Spanish National Health System. SESPAS Report 2018]. / Diálogo sobre la implementación local de la Estrategia de Promoción de la Salud y Prevención en el Sistema Nacional de Salud. Informe SESPAS 2018.

The local implementation of the Prevention and Health Promotion Strategy of the National Health System is presented as an opportunity to advance in health promotion. Although there are different visions from the municipal, regional and national levels, as well as from public health and from primary care, there is a consensus that it is necessary to promote local health strategies. Coordination mechanisms should be established to facilitate multilevel and intersectoral work. Local implementation must advance in the promotion of citizen participation and community health, beyond the preparation of the resource map.
