How should we invest precious health resources? At a time when
chronic illness is increasing, inequality persists and climate
change is starting to impact our health, how can health promotion
improve health outcomes across the whole population? Health
Promotion in the 21st Century offers a systematic introduction to
the principles of health promotion today, and effective planning,
implementation and evaluation. The authors review the global,
regional and local issues that affect health in Australia, and show
how social, economic, political and educational elements in society
contribute to population health and wellbeing. Throughout, the
authors emphasise that health promotion needs multiple solutions,
and that health professionals should seek out strategic
opportunities and partnerships. They consider the issues facing
vulnerable groups - such as Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander
people, those with mental health issues, and the aged - and suggest
a variety of innovative tools for working with particular
populations. They also focus on strategies to ensure programs
remain vibrant and sustainable in the longer term. With case
studies and activities in each chapter, Health Promotion in the
21st Century is an essential resource for anyone seeking to build a
career in health promotion.
