Abstract

Health is the most desirable value in modern society and a crucial aspect of a region to be considered a place to live and rest. The concept of a health region is seen as a tool to increase the attractiveness of a place. The Pomeranian region is considered to have the potential to develop itself as a health region. The goal of this paper is to analyse if the awareness of health issues is already present within the region. Empirical research shows that most themes discussed in the literature as preconditions for developing a health region exist, while simultaneously, there are still several obstacles to achieve this goal.
