Health education may be a profession of teaching people about health. Areas within this profession encompass environmental health, physical health, social health, emotional health, intellectual health, and spiritual health, also as sexual and reproductive health education.
Health education are often defined because the principle by which individuals and groups of individuals learn to behave during a manner conducive to the promotion, maintenance, or restoration of health. However, as there are multiple definitions of health, there also are multiple definitions of health education. In America, the Joint Committee on Health Education and Promotion Terminology of 2001 defined Health Education as “any combination of planned learning experiences supported sound theories that provide individuals, groups, and communities the chance to accumulate information and therefore the skills needed to form quality health decisions.”
The World Health Organization defined Health Education as “comprising of consciously constructed opportunities for learning involving some sort of communication designed to enhance health literacy, including improving knowledge, and developing life skills which are conducive to individual and community health.”
