Health Promotion

Overview

Health promotion is the process of enabling people to increase control over their health and improve their health. It focuses on the underlying determinants of health such as access to health services, health knowledge, lifestyle choices and social and economic conditions. Health promotion is important because it helps to reduce health disparities, enable individuals to make informed decisions, and create healthier communities. It also helps to reduce health-care costs by preventing and reducing chronic diseases. Health promotion is used in a variety of ways, such as providing health education and health services, creating awareness campaigns and community initiatives, and promoting healthy lifestyle choices through legislation.
