This edition results from the research initiation project Arteria danubia (ArDa), with which a research association of Danube riparian states was established. The subject were and are health regions, which have to cope with very heterogeneous challenges due to their different starting situations in Germany, Hungary and Bulgaria. Health regions, as described in this work from five perspectives, represent a primarily organisational category in which health is managed. In addition, digital search engines and assistance systems are becoming more and more important - in the narrower context of health regions. Therefore, another thematic block deals with the topics of health literacy and these very search engines. Which are used how, and on what cognitive basis? It goes without saying that the therapy of patients affected by severe changes also takes place in the regions. Two oncological and one contribution to dehydrogenation prophylaxis constitute this third perspective of the book.

Provides revealing European insights into innovative concepts of regional health promotion Current issues in eHealth are reflected in the European context Current topics for a European-oriented target group of public health students are given here
