In this video we take a brief look at Health Promotion, the process of enabling people to increase control over, and to improve their health. Health promotion is a very important part of public health and an essential component in any public health program. We’ll also have a look at some key concepts and the Ottawa Charter – a landmark document that has been influential in providing guidance to the goals and concepts of health promotion.
