Health Promotion & Education is a social science that draws from the biological, environmental, psychological, physical and medical sciences to promote health and prevent disease, disability and premature death through education-driven voluntary behavior change activities. Health education is the development of individual, group, institutional, community and systemic strategies to improve health knowledge, attitudes, skills and behavior.
The purpose of health education is to positively influence the health behavior of individuals and communities as well as the living and working conditions that influence their health.
