From prevention to planetary health – a preview of our new issue

Abstract

The latest issue of the journal explores the determinants of health across individual, community, and societal levels. The articles address the planning of public health programmes, social attitudes towards mental health, and the ongoing debate between prevention and healthcare provision. Special attention is given to youth health behaviours, the social determinants of health inequalities, community participation, and the practical application of evidence-informed health promotion. Contributions focusing on climate change and planetary health highlight the growing interconnections between global challenges and human health. The issue also presents the winning initiatives of the journal’s health promotion call, offering valuable examples and lessons for public health professionals and local communities alike.
