The approach aims to improve the social, cultural, nutritional educational and environmental well being of the people of the entire district. A healthy district is one that is continually creating and improving the physical and social environment. The basic characteristics of a healthy district in a developing country setup are: a clean and safe physical environment of very high quality; a high degree of community participation; a place where all human basic needs are satisfied for its people. The paper introduces the concepts of a healthy district set up and discusses the relevant issues that are likely to be addressed for creating a new and environment friendly administrative unit at the district level. The model is likely to be implemented in all districts of the South East Asian Region in the near future. - Reproduced.  aDistrict administration  aVision  a56088  c56088d56088  00104070aIIPAbIIPAd2018-07-19hVolume no: 6, Issue no: 2pAR56533r2018-07-19w2018-07-19yAR
