Human life and maintainable advancement are still more combined and discusseable.Thus in this days much more attention is beeing concerntrated at the project titled as Healthy town.Under this title one can imagine a lot of its meanings.Someone might take it as injuries,others as clean parks, whereby the kids could play without any concern.As you notice, everyone under the title Healthy town is taking it differently, but altogerther it gives the same meaning as Healthy town. I have choosen this theme for its actuallity.This project Healthy town is completely dealing with the problems of the inhabitants,but does not forget for theire responsibilities and allows an active dialog amongst them and its leadership of the town.We should not forget, that healthy towns have got well worked out methods of public administration, which is well valued by the EU.This fact helps in requirements for grants from EU which is a privilege for healthy towns,which is the reality of today. In the theoritical part of the corrent state I have hilghlited the basic information of the WHO and its communual project Healthy town, which I have aquired through out my studies from special literatures, internet references,magayines,which I have listed in the used sources. In the practical part of the research I have added the information of the findings, which I have aquired wiith the help of my own findings.Initially I have conducted the secondary data analysis, which I have obtained from the database of the national net of healthy towns in CZ, Association of healthy towns in SR,of the Czech statistical office and Slovakian statistical office. Since the project Healthy town is part of the communal project is partially formed induvidually.As a result of this I have refered in the practical part of this work two case studyies of healthy towns,which serves as an exemplary of this project.
