Local HP campaign

Speaking of health promotion, the "Walk Safely to School Day" campaign is a great example of a campaign that encourages physical activity in local communities. The campaign raises awareness of this issue and empowers parents to get their kids walking to school.

It addresses risk factors for CVD, diabetes, obesity and injuries. This is a campaign that could be well worth studying and using as an example for your HSC exam. Consider how it addresses the Ottawa Charter Action Areas and employs an intersectoral approach. Read more about it at the website listed on this page.
