Data were gathered by the correspondents of the ISARE project in each of the participating countries by contacts with the national or regional statistical offices.
The ISARE project (health indicators in the regions of Europe) aims at gathering useful information on health indicators in the regions of the European Union.
The ISARE project firstly defined "health regions" within European Member States and then tested the feasibility of gathering data at those regional levels. The list of data to be collected was defined taking into account the ECHI list and information on the availability of these data at the regional level. The report of the ISARE-1 and ISARE-2 projects are available on the ISARE website. The ISARE-3 project, continues the work of ISARE-1 and -2 and includes data from new EU Member States (EU-25).
