Description

In the context of growing interest in addressing health disparities, inequalities, and inequities in diverse populations, community health promotion and health education are critically important strategies that need to be successfully employed. This book addresses the concepts and practices of promoting health and successful interventions in and with communities, including the role of education, localism versus globalisation and how to put health promotion strategies into practice.
