Abstract
|
|
|
|
Through the establishment in September 2005 of the OECD Regional Centre on Health and Social Policy this Centre in Seoul, Korea and the OECD are responding to the strong mutual interest in a common agenda among OECD and non-OECD countries to create capacities in the areas of health and social policy. With the creation of this Centre, the OECD seeks to respond to the need for greater knowledge of best practices in health and social policy in OECD and non-OECD, with a focus on the Asian countries. The OECD believes that broader international co-operation and exchanges of experience between OECD and non-OECD countries will be essential to this process. By involving regional and national authorities in the policy debate, the Centre will help countries to reap the benefits of globalisation, social cohesion and to generate growth from the bottom up.
