Description

The Health Literacy Survey 2019-2021 (HLS19) was M-POHL’s first project. Its aim was to measure population health literacy in as many member countries of the WHO European Region as possible.

To plan and carry out this project, a consortium of participating countries was set up to make decisions, and working groups were formed to develop the study design as well as new survey instruments to measure navigational health literacy, communicative health literacy, digital health literacy, vaccination health literacy and the costs and economics of health literacy in addition to general health literacy.
