b. Create partnerships among individuals, communities, and systems

d. Further the agenda of the World Health Organization (WHO)
ANS: B
Healthy People 2020 builds upon shared responsibility to improve the nation's health. Powerful, productive partnerships among diverse people and groups and long-term commitments to com-munity collaboration are needed to achieve these goals. Healthy People 2020 did not promote the establishment of nursing centers. Healthy People 2020 focuses on the needs of the United States, not that of lesser developed countries or the agenda of the WHO.
