Two years ago, the International Union for Health Promotion and Education
has published a collection of papers describing country experiences
presented at a special IUHPE Seminar on National Health Promoting Policies,
Strategies, and Structures held in Paris in November 1994. This Seminar
considered national level experiences in creating conditions for successful
health promotion (policies, resources, and structures) in differing country
circumstances.
Would you be interested in getting a copy of this report, which is a double
issue of the IUHPE's Journal Promotion & Education, for your project ?
Bonne journée.
