Health Education

Health education is a social science that draws from the mental, physical, biological, environmental and medical sciences to endorse health and prevent defects, disease and adolescent death over education-driven amenable behavior change activities. Health education is any combination of learning experiences planned to facilitate voluntary actions favourable to health. Health promotion is the consolidation of environmental and educational supports for actions and conditions of living favourable to health, thereby including health education.
