Introduction

An introduction to the assignment that establishes the importance of the selected health promotion intervention and makes it clear about who the specific population is that is targeted. Relevant information should aim to provide an overview regarding the public health issue/health issue addressed by the specific health promotion intervention and the extent of this public health issue/health issue in the particular target population therefore supporting the implementation of the particular health promotion intervention.

Discussion

Critical examination of relevant behavioural theory and evidence in order to critically report on and indicate the extent to which the particular health promotion intervention was effective in driving positive changes in relevant health behaviours. This section should also identify the strengths and weaknesses (and limitations) of the selected health promotion intervention with reference to the approach taken to implementation and evaluation of the intervention.

Implications

Provide detailed evidence-based recommendations aiming to enhance the effectiveness of the selected health promotion intervention by addressing its weaknesses and limitations.
