Abstract:
This purpose of the study is to systematically understand the development history and influencing factors of higher public health education in China. We extensively collected the public health education-related literature in China, summarized the general framework, historical origin, and development mode of the existing public health education system, and discussed the potential development tendency. Public health education in China changed with the development of higher medical education and higher education in China. Higher education in China has experienced several large-scale adjustments and enrollment expansions due to different purposes. Therefore, its development stage can be roughly divided into three stages: 1949 to 1976 (period of planned economy), 1977 to late 1998 (period of reform and opening up), and from 1999 to present (period of deepening reform and social transformation). The current public health education in China is influenced by many models, such as the American model, European model (especially the former Soviet Union), and ideological and political education model. It still faces some problems or challenges, such as bachelor's programs, Master of Public Health, social identity, professional accreditation, and broader public health. In fact, it is necessary to establish an important education system based on the concept of modern public health, beyond the existing medical education system, in order to meet the challenges and needs of public health in the twenty-first century.Public health law

Abstract In the 10 years since its founding, the Israel Journal of Health Policy Research has established itself as an important voice in Israeli and international health policy. The Journal’s ability to combine national and international perspectives on key issues in health services delivery and health systems analysis has developed a valuable new arena for academic research about the increasingly complex post-COVID future of health care systems.

Background: One Health refers to the dynamic interdependence of human, animal and environmental health and provides a unique lens through which to examine health problems.Purpose: The purposes of this manuscript were (1) to contextualize One Health in public health and health education, (2) provide examples of a One Health approach to communicable and chronic disease, and (3) explain how One Health interfaces with the NCHEC Areas of Responsibility.Model: One Health involves combining human, animal and environmental components to address global health challenges that have an ecological interconnectedness and plays a role in promoting public health and health education. While One Health has technically been practiced by some public health, veterinary and medical professionals for many years, it is now becoming more recognized and institutionalized. Both public health and health education programs are in ideal position to integrate a One Health approach into their educational programs.Discussion: One Health can be integrated into public health and health education professional preparation courses including practicum and capstone courses. This article both provides a background to contextualize One Health as it relates to public health and health education and presents two examples, one from a Master of Public Health (MPH) program and one from a Global Health Certificate program from Virginia and how One Health interfaces with the NCHEC Areas of Responsibility.

Objective: In this study, we aimed to define the role of health education, health policies, and health service as factors in the health behavior of Chinese college students. It is critical to understand that there is an important role of health behavior in the life of college students in any society because the survival of society is dependent on better health status. Methods: We used SPSS software for analysis to test our hypotheses.Results: We found an important role for health education, health policies, and health services as determinants of health behavior. Conclusion: The focus of healthcare organizations must be to focus on health education, health policies, and health services by creating awareness in college students that ensures they are provided with the appropriate health sector solutions. Additionally, we found theoretical and practical implications to improve the health behavior of Chinese college students via a moderating role of information technology, because, in modern times, the role of information technology is critical to convey information productively.

Health promotion is a broad and complex process that overarches all health strategy related to primary health care, public health, population health and community health. It is often an overtly political and policy-driven process that includes types of health education activity such as ‘radical’ health education (Clavier & de Leeuw, 2013; Green et al., 2019). When it comes to primary health care program planning and evaluation, the terms health promotion and health education are also often used interchangeably but this is less of a problem than already stated. Health promotion approaches, often by default, include health education interventions. Reflecting this, many ‘health’ planning and evaluation tools and models incorporate both health promotion and health education processes (Raingruber 2014; Whitehead & Irvine, 2010). This chapter aims to highlight good practice as it applies to essential health promotion and health education programs required to demonstrate effective process. It does so by presenting these in a logical and sequential process and offers an overview of models and frameworks for guiding this process.
