depends on how you define health promotion.

If you mean fruits and vegetables, you are having trouble finding evidence
because there is none.  If you mean community empowerment and policy change,
there are tons of evidence but it might not be labelled "health promotion."

see Healthy Cities Europe for the real thing!

 Subject: Evidence for health promotion successes








I am currently writing the proposal for my thesis and am in need of a
reference or two containing evidence demonstrating that health promotions
are successful.  I cannot seem to be able to find any citations that
discuss this notion in general.  I can find references, usually evaluation
reports, that provide evidence supporting that a particular health
promotion initiative has worked.  Thanks for any suggestions.

Laura
