Healthy Ireland Coordinator
The Position Westmeath County Council invites applications from suitably qualified persons who wish to be considered for the position of Healthy Ireland Coordinator for which permanent and fixed term contract vacancies shall be drawn. Background – Healthy Cities & Counties Programme The Healthy Cities & Counties Programme is a Department of Health funded initiative located within local government with a concerted focus on life-long wellbeing, prevention of illness; enabling wellbeing environments and the reduction of health inequities. More specifically, the programme highlights the important role and responsibility that local government has in enhancing community wellbeing outcomes. The Healthy Cities & Counties Programme promotes a whole-of-local-government approach and seeks to demonstrate how coherent actions across the wider determinants of health and wellbeing areas of local government activity can produce benefits across broader development objectives and many other related policy areas. This alignment of health and wellbeing activity alongside other local government initiatives with shared objectives is important in driving coherence and collaboration across local government. The programme has a formal governance arrangement within the LCDC structure which gives it a strong platform from which to build collaborative effort and support high level goal efforts within Local Economic and Community Plans. The Healthy Ireland Coordinator is responsible for the delivery of the programme. A Healthy Ireland Fund secured from the Department of Health is provided to each Local Authority to help leverage activity in specific outcome areas. The fund is used to lever support for projects in specific outcome areas and its management and administration forms part of the overall work programme of the Coordinator. The primary work of the Healthy Ireland Coordinator is a collaborative and networking role to encourage implementation of key wellbeing determinant objectives within local government, explore resource and partnership opportunity locally, regionally and nationally to influence resource allocation flows to the Local Authority for wellbeing outcome focused projects, and seek out opportunity from a European perspective considering the WHO European Healthy Cities Network approach and relevant EU programme activity. WHO European Healthy Cities - WHO Healthy Cities is a global movement working to put health high on the social, economic and political agenda of National and Local Governments. The Healthy Cities movement has been a driver of change, creating healthier places that support the health and wellbeing of the people that use them. The Healthy Cities vision acknowledges the critical role that cities, counties and local governments play in tackling health and wellbeing issues through innovation, partnerships, and advocacy. Its approach seeks to put health and community wellbeing high on the political and social agenda and to build a strong movement for public health at the local level. The WHO European Healthy Cities Network enters Phase VIII (2025-2030) with its overarching goal being to advance health, wellbeing, and equity for all by addressing health challenges through collaboration, innovation, and sustainability. The National Healthy Cities & Counties of Ireland Network and the cities of Limerick, Cork, Waterford and Galway were accredited to the Network for Phase VII and the goals and themes proposed for Phase VIII will be significant guiding principles within the work programme for the Healthy Ireland Administrative Officer positions. National Healthy Cities & Counties of Ireland Network - The National Healthy Cities & Counties of Ireland Network is an initiative that brings together City and County Councils across the country to create collaborative and sustainable actions that improve wellbeing outcomes. The National Network has a focus on strengthening the capacity of local government to lead on improving health and wellbeing outcomes and address key health determinants areas at the local and regional level and regarding specific thematic health and wellbeing areas of interest. A cross-government steering committee supports the Network's work through enabling the Healthy Cities and Counties Programme to serve as a catalyst for regional and local implementation of the Healthy Ireland Outcomes framework, the Sláintecare Health reform agenda and relevant elements of the Programme for Government: “Securing Ireland’s Future”, ensuring strong alignment with National priorities. The Minister for Public Health and Wellbeing is the Political lead for the National Network. Healthy Ireland Outcomes Framework - The National Framework for Improved Health and Wellbeing, 2013-2025, was launched in 2013 to make Ireland a healthier place to live, work and play. It’s four high-level goals were: Goal 1: Increase the proportion of people who are healthy at all stages of life. Goal 2: Reduce health inequalities. Goal 3: Protect the public from threats to health and wellbeing. Goal 4: Create an environment where every individual and sector of society can play their part in achieving a healthy Ireland. A cross-government and cross-sectoral Healthy Ireland Strategic Action Plan, 2021-2025, was developed as a unified roadmap to achieving the high-level goals, with the Department of Health responsible for its strategic planning and implementation. A Healthy Ireland Fund (HIF) was established in 2016 to support implementing project activities that contributed to the Outcomes Framework and the Department of Health has since then, approved four HIF rounds. Round 4, is an outcome-based approach delivered by Local Authorities and though in its final year, has been extended out to 31st December 2026 to progress approved outcomes and the achievement of full spend under HIF Round 4 and also provide maneuverability for a new Outcomes Framework currently being worked on by the Department of Health which is planned for 2026.
