The department of Health Promotion focuses on the promotion of public health and healthy behaviour. Health promotion refers to the process of enabling people to increase control over, and to improve, their health. It moves beyond a focus on individual behaviour towards a wide range of social and environmental interventions. A so-called ecological perspective is adopted, in which determinants of health and of health behaviour at different levels are considered.
The research is based within the following 2 schools:
