Canada’s health promotion journey combines theory, research, policy, and practice. The narrative illuminates vital issues including LGBTQIA and Indigenous health, digital innovation, post-COVID realities, and climate justice. This collection weaves practical examples with community resilience and forward-looking strategies.
Health Promotion in Canada offers a comprehensive profile of the history, current landscape, and future directions of health promotion in Canada. Emphasizing the links between theory, research, policy, and practice, this engaging series draws on concrete Canadian examples that bring the concepts and content to life and introduces new perspectives on critical issues such as 2S/LGBTQIA health, planetary health, climate justice, and community-centered approaches to resilience. This new edition continues the critical approach of the previous four editions while offering an in-depth analysis of recent developments and innovative approaches in health promotion along with explorations of topical issues. With 20 new chapters, this edited collection contains contributions by prominent Canadian academics, researchers, and practitioners, reflecting a commitment to advancing well-being in a rapidly changing world while addressing the pressing challenges and opportunities shaping the field today. The fifth edition also offers fresh insights on topics such as the post-COVID health landscape, Indigenous health promotion, and mental health as well as updated discussions on health equity, digital health.

Featuring learning objectives, case studies, thought-provoking discussion questions, resources for further study, and accompanying supplementary resources, this is an ideal textbook for courses in public health, health promotion and education, health sciences, nursing, and related disciplines.
