Prevention and health promotion

Prevention and health promotion

Workplace and everyday life contexts

To be effective, health promotion and disease prevention recommendations require participation and collaboration at different levels of the social community: individual, collective and institutional. Health is part of everyday life, that is, in the workplace, in schools, and communities. 

The interventions must therefore also consider a change in the contexts, both regulatory (such as incentives and awareness) and structural (such as the organization of adequate spaces) to activate the changes that contribute to the well-being of citizens.
