1991-1996
Health promotion begins to face a number of challenges, including setbacks in the progress against tobacco use as a result of tax reductions and threats to the well-being of communities resulting from a severe economic recession and the erosion of the social safety net. The resulting fiscal restraint placed increased demands on health promotion to demonstrate its accountability and prove the ‘effectiveness’ of its initiatives.
At the same time, the federal government’s shift from health promotion to a population health approach forced health promoters to integrate their concepts and values into new frameworks for thinking about health.
1997
Health promotion’s commitment to social justice, equity and sustainability was reaffirmed at the Fourth International Conference on Health Promotion with the adoption of The Jakarta Declaration on Leading Health Promotion into the 21st Century, which identified poverty as “the greatest threat to health” and noted the dangers to health posed by globalization and environmental degradation
2000-presnt
Health promotion continues to evolve, embracing new technologies such as the Internet as tools for education and community mobilization. It also grapples with challenges such as continuing fiscal restraint and a shift in public health priorities due to the re-emergence of communicable disease threats such as the West Nile Virus and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS). What do you think the next century holds in store for health promotion?
