health promotion
Encouraging healthier living
Health promotion encompasses efforts to improve well-being and prevent disease through education, policy, and environmental changes rather than medical treatment.
It shifts focus from curing illness to fostering healthy behaviors and conditions: The campaign emphasized health promotion over reactive care.
Public health initiatives, workplace wellness programs, and community outreach all fall under this umbrella.
