The types of programmes and actions people take when promoting health are wide ranging. To make sense of these we can categories them into 3 models.
HEALTH PROMOTION MODELS

- Self-empowerment model
- Collective action model

- Focuses on risks rather than preventive
- Healthism rather than socio-ecological perspective
- Can tend to blame people for their health probs
- Research suggests it does not work on its own
