Health promotion is not just the responsibilityof health sector but goes beyond lifestyles towell-being. Five action areas for health promotion were identified in the charter: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Building healthy public policy Create supportive environments Strengthening community action Developing personal skills Re-orientating health care services toward prevention of illness and promotion of health

The basic strategies for health promotion were prioritized as: 1. Advocate: Health is a resource for social and developmental means, thus the dimensions that affect these factors must be changed to encourage health. 2. Enable: Health equity must be reached where individuals must become empowered to control the determinants that affect their health, such that they are able to reach the highest attainable quality of life. 3. Mediate: Health promotion cannot be achieved by the health sector alone; rather its success will depend on the collaboration of all sectors of

government (social, economic, etc.) as well as independent organizations (media, industry, etc.).

Emphasizing partnership so that the health workers and the community leaders/members view each other as partners rather than merely providers and receiver of health care respectively.

C. Theories Models of Health Promotion (Pender, Bandura, Green)


Penders Health Promotion Model
To be used as guide to explore the biophysical processes that motivate individuals to engage in behaviors directed toward health enhancement. (PENDER, 1996). Provided a theoretical framework which was used to investigate life-enhancing behaviors such as exercise and weight loss. Is a competence or approach-oriented model that depicts the multidimensional nature of persons interacting with their interpersonal and physical environments as they pursue health. Focused on health promoting behaviors rather than health protection or illness prevention behaviors

Greens Precede Proceed Model


PRECEDE/PROCEED is a community-oriented, participatory model for creating successful community health promotion interventions. PRECEDE has five phases: Phase 1: Social diagnosis Phase 2: Epidemiological diagnosis Phase 3: Behavioral and environmental diagnosis Phase 4: Educational and organizational diagnosis Phase 5: Administrative and policy diagnosis PROCEED has four phases: Phase 6: Implementation Phase 7: Process evaluation Phase 8: Impact evaluation Phase 9: Outcome evaluation

How do you use PRECEDE/PROCEED?


In Phase 1, social diagnosis, you ask the community what it wants and needs to improve its quality of life. In Phase 2, epidemiological diagnosis, you identify the health or other issues that most clearly influence the outcome the community seeks. In these two phases, you create the objectives for your intervention. In Phase 3, behavioral and environmental diagnosis, you identify the behaviors and lifestyles and/or environmental factors that must be changed to affect the health or other issues identified in Phase 2, and determine which of them are most likely to be changeable. In Phase 4, educational and organizational diagnosis, you identify the predisposing, enabling, and reinforcing factors that act as supports for or

barriers to changing the behaviors and environmental factors you identified in Phase 3. In these two phases, you plan the intervention. In Phase 5, administrative and policy diagnosis, you identify (and adjust where necessary) the internal administrative issues and internal and external policy issues that can affect the successful conduct of the intervention. Those administrative and policy concerns include generating the funding and other resources for the intervention. In Phase 6, implementation, you carry out the intervention. In Phase 7, process evaluation, you evaluate the process of the intervention i.e., you determine whether the intervention is proceeding according to plan, and adjust accordingly. In Phase 8, impact evaluation, you evaluate whether the intervention is having the intended impact on the behavioral and environmental factors its aimed at, and adjust accordingly. In Phase 9, outcome evaluation, you evaluate whether the interventions effects are in turn producing the outcome(s) the community identified in Phase 1, and adjust accordingly.
