The Ottawa Charter identifies three basic strategies
for health promotion:
1)
Advocacy
for health to create the essential conditions
for health
2)
Enabling
all people to achieve their full health
potentials
3)
Mediating
between the different interests in society in
the pursuit of health

Good health is a major resource for social, economic and
personal development and an important dimension of quality of
life.
Political, economic, social, cultural, environmental,
behavioural and biological factors can all favour health or be
harmful to it. Health promotion action aims at making these
conditions favourable through advocacy for health
.

Pre-requisites for health which include peace, adequate
economic resources, food and shelter, and a stable eco-system
and sustainable resource use.
Recognition of these pre-requisites highlights the inextricable
links between social and economic conditions, the physical
environment, individual lifestyles and health.
These links provide the key to a holistic understanding of
health which is central to the definition of health promotion.

Health promotion focuses on achieving equity in health.
Health promotion action aims at reducing differences in current
health status and ensuring equal opportunities and resources to
enable all people to achieve their fullest health potential.
This includes a secure foundation in a supportive environment,
access to information, life skills and opportunities for making
healthy choices.
People cannot achieve their fullest health potential unless they
are able to take control of those things which determine their
health.

The prerequisites and prospects for health cannot be ensured by
the health sector alone.
Health promotion demands coordinated action by all
concerned: by governments, by health and other social and
economic sectors, by nongovernmental and voluntary
organization, by local authorities, by industry and by the media.

People in all walks of life are involved as individuals, families
and communities. Professional and social groups and health
personnel have a major responsibility to mediate between differing
interests in society for the pursuit of health.
Health promotion strategies and programs should be adapted to
the local needs and possibilities of individual countries and regions
to take into account differing social, cultural and economic
systems.
These strategies are supported by five priority action areas as
outlined in the Ottawa Charter for health promotion:
1.
Build healthy public policy
2.
Create supportive
environments for health
3.
Strengthen community action
for health
4.
Develop personal skills
5.
Re-orient health services

Healthy public policy is a pre-requisite for successful health
promotion.
A Healthy Public Policy is characterized by a concern for
health and equity and accountability for health impact.
Policy-makers should be made aware of the health
consequences of their decisions.
Health should be made a priority item on the agenda of policy-
makers in all sectors.

All relevant government sectors like agriculture, trade,
education, industry and finance need to give important
consideration to health as an essential factor during their policy
formulation
Joint action by all sectors will contribute to achieving safer and
healthier goods and services, healthier public services, and
cleaner and healthier environment.
According to the Adelaide Conference (1988), “The main aim of
HPP is to create a supportive environment to enable the people to
lead healthy lives. Healthy choices are thereby made possible
and easier for citizens”.
2) Create Supportive Environments for Health
A supportive environment is essential for health
Supportive environments cover the physical, social, economic,
and political environment.
Supportive environments encompass where people live, work
and play.
Everyone has a role in creating supportive
environments for health.
The protection of the natural and built environments and the
conservation of natural resources must be addressed in any
health promotion strategy.

Community action is any activity undertaken by a community
in order to effect change
According to the Ottawa Charter, “health promotion works
through concrete and effective community action in setting
priorities, making decisions, planning strategies and
implementing them to achieve better health”.

A Definition (Rifkin et al. 1988) : Community participation is a
social process whereby groups with shared needs living in a
defined geographic area actively pursue identification of their
needs, take decisions and establish mechanisms to meet these
needs
Community participation covers a spectrum of activities

At the low end, it may be token participation in the form of
consultation or endorsing plans drawn up by the health
authorities. At the high end, it may be in the form of ‘people
power’ where they have full say in identifying needs, setting
priorities, planning strategies and activities and implementing
the program
Full community participation occurs when communities
participate in equal partnership with health professionals as
stakeholders in setting the health agenda

According to the Jakarta Declaration (1997), “health
promotion improves both the ability of individuals to take
action, and the capacity of groups, organizations or
communities to influence the determinants of health”.
Empowerment is an important strategy, based on the notion
that health is significantly affected by the extent to which
one has control or power over one’s life.

Health promotion supports personal and social development
through providing information, education for health, and
enhancing life skills.
Skills which can promote an individual’s health include those
pertaining to identifying, selecting and applying healthy
options in daily life.
Health education is life-long, so that people can develop the
relevant skills to meet the health challenges of all stages of
life, and to be able to cope with chronic illness and disabilities.

The role of the health sector must move increasingly in a health
promotion direction, beyond its responsibility for providing
clinical and curative services.
Reorienting health services requires stronger attention to health
research as well as changes in professional education and training.
This must lead to a change of attitude and organization of health
services which refocuses on the total needs of the individual as a
whole person.
May necessitate reengineering and organizational change,
especially in the areas of professional education and training,
management, recruitment and deployment of health personnel,
and planning, development and delivery of services.

4)Develop Personal Skills Health education should be conducted in all settings. Empowerment helps people to identify their own needs and concerns, and gain the power, skills and confidence to act upon them
5) Re-orient health services The role of the health sector must move increasingly in a health promotion direction, beyond its responsibility for providing clinical and curative services. Reorienting health services requires stronger attention to health research as well as changes in professional education and training. This must lead to a change of attitude and organization of health services which refocuses on the total needs of the individual as a whole person.
5) Re-orient health services May necessitate reengineering and organizational change, especially in the areas of professional education and training, management, recruitment and deployment of health personnel, and planning, development and delivery of services.
