Abstract | Health promotion is the most favorable approach and process to achieve a positive health outcome of the population. Several countries across the world are committed to achieving positive health for their people with the best health promotion strategies. Health promotion, in fact, shares a large portion of health care economy and resources in many countries. A low-income country like Nepal, however, lacks the implementation of rigorous health care strategies on a large scale and is deficient in evidence of the potential scope of health promotion. Nepal has adopted the global health promotion declaration on paper; however, health care providers and authorities are still working in a traditional way using existing health policies and strategies. This paper aims to explore some of the global best practices of health promotion, including the challenges and opportunities by adopting such practices in Nepal, and provides some recommendations as a way forward. |
