In a vast multifaceted country like India, making a permanent impact on health and development particularly to help the vulnerable people, requires a sophisticated and dynamic understanding of the changing development panorama so that response is prompt and creative. Perhaps the situation is getting further complicated with the direct impact of globalization and COVID-19 pandemic.
Based on the past experience, VHAI organized a participatory two half-day workshop on 14th and 15th September with an agenda to evolve clear strategies for future action by VHAI and State VHAs on Health Promotion. The workshop was based on three pillars- Health Promotion, Self-Care for Health and Social Determinants of Health including entitlements.
Through these online sessions, with active participation of State VHAs, a future roadmap of Health & Wellbeing and its integration it with our ongoing work on the ground was derived.
