| Australian Health Promotion Association |
Australia’s peak health promotion body, the Australian Health Promotion Association is the only professional association in Australia specifically for people interested or involved in the practice, research and study of health promotion.
What is health promotion?Health promotion is the process of enabling people to increase control over the determinants of health and thereby improve their health. The health promotion profession has evolved alongside, and in response to, the international health promotion movement and the broader new public health movement.
