> In October 1996, the Health Education Authority set up ten expert working

> questions:
>
> - Which health promotion interventions, if any, work to promote the
health
> and well-being of individuals, families and communities, and to prevent
ill
> health?
>
> - What are the principle health promotion needs of these groups?
>
> - What are the implications for a new research, development and policy
> agenda?

> Promoting the health of homeless people: setting a research agenda is the
> second in a series of reports emanating from this exploratory research
> programme. Dr Robert Power from royal free and University College Medical

housing

health
> promotion, social policy and development programmes and research
aproaches.
