Course overview

This course is designed to provide students with an in depth understanding of the theory behind the principles and practice of health promotion and the practical application of those theories across the community. It will allow students to understand health promotion at the individual, group, community and national levels, as well as supporting critical thinking around the social determinants of health as well as evidence-based health promotion. The course will also focus on the importance of planning and evaluation in enhancing the quality of health promotion interventions and will also discuss many of the challenges facing health promotion today. This course is designed to include face-to-face attendance; however, options to participate online are available for students unable to attend in person, with permission of the course coordinator.
