Additional Information:Health promotion can be a frustrating subject to study, as it can appear to mean all things to all people. To some its role is to encourage compliance and conformity to predetermined behavioural norms, to others it is a precursor to social change and community action. This module will facilitate students’ exploration of the role of the public health practitioner in the community, particularly in relation to communication of risk and the design and delivery of evidence based interventions that will promote health and wellbeing.
