Health Promotion Planning Models
Health Promotion Interventions should be effective in meeting the needs of the intended populations and should have real-world impact in terms of improved health-related quality of life. Many people including academics, practitioners and the lady down the street will have ideas about what the causes of ill health are and what can be done to rectify that. These ideas may not all align with each other and it has been said that the quality of the intervention planning process plays a significant role in the quality of intervention design and implementation and ultimately the scale of the impact.
This page is designed to give an introduction to the various models and guidelines that have been designed to inform the development of Health Promotion interventions.
