National Forum of Spain

Official Name:
A virtual forum for WHP   
 
Internet:
Please turn to National Contact Office Spain.
 
Founded:
The Spanish WHP forum is not yet in place. The background of the future online forum is a mailing list which is working since 1996 as a vehicle for dissemination of ENWHP initiatives and results among other information.
 
Objectives:
The mission of this future forum will be to develop the capacity to act on workplace health promotion at national level among relevant stakeholders and to foster partnership among them. As this capacity needs of strong leadership based on knowledge, scientific evidence and financial resources, this forum will try to achieve the following objectives:

  • To promote exchange of information, knowledge and expertise in order to increase commitment and competence of relevant stakeholders (mainly the ones who develop their function at company level)
  • To make available Models of Good Practice
  • To provide a space for communication
  • To promote collaboration in developing WHP joint initiatives using funding opportunities given by national or European grants
  • To transfer methods of WHP.

Structure:
IT-mediated groups through a specific website included in the website of INSHT. INSHT will act as moderator and provider of ENWHP and national information. Targets could be individuals and organisations that will act as multipliers.
This thematic portal will host two types of fora:
A general one, open to all internet visitors where people can interact expressing ideas, doubts, asking for help.
Several specific topics, that will be open by the moderator as a result of periodical needs surveys, analysis of the general forum or by emergent priorities derived from ENWHP actions or national or European policies in OSH or WHP. The analysis of other forum will also be a source of information about relevant needs among specific stakeholders.
 
Working Methods:
The portal will be open to the public. This includes all OSH and WHP relevant stakeholders.
Most relevant papers and documents of ENWHP will be summarised, translated and made available in electronic form.
The general forum will be open to the public and will be used for identification of WHP and OSH needs.
It´s planned to celebrate a final event of some forum for marketing results or if they need further consensus.
 
Priorities:
Get the financing and put in place the virtual platform with adequate Forum technology.
