HEALTH PROMOTION2
Overview of the programme
The chosen topic for the health promotion activity is encouraging the responsible
consumption of alcohol, in line with the health guidelines. Alcohol consumption has become one
of the important issues especially among the adolescents and the adults. Adolescents, especially
the college students are in the edge line who have more tendency to drink alcohol. If adolescents
start drinking at such a small age then they will acquire different diseases including the
malfunctioning of liver, kidney and the other digestive organs. This particular health issue has
been chosen as this is most important evolving problem of the adolescents. The most important
factor is the peer pressure. College going students mostly force the friends or the new students
who join the college to indulge into drinking alcohol (2). The targeted audience of the health
promotion are the adolescent students of the NSW region of Australia. Research studies show
that many health promotions are already done on the reduction of the consumption of alcohol,
the results of those promotion activities show that some of the health promotion has positive
effects on the audiences while most of the audiences just came to visit the promotion activities
(1). Some people listening to the promotion activities gets benefitted from the promotion while
the rest just take the harmful effects of the alcohol to the human body casually. The health
promotion activity continued for 5 weeks.
