INTRODUCTION
In 1986, health promotion established in order to improve and health and spread
awarenesses of health issues. Health is a significant factor of each individuals as the health is
delicate and should improved and should be given significant care to it. As it is stated by World
Health Organisation Ottawa Charter For Health Promotion it is concluded that it is ,methods of
enabling population in order to increase control over, improve as well as their health and
associated issues. In Australia, as there were several diseases which were affecting many people
such as Chicken pox, Flu, Viral, skin infections etc. In this following report there is illustration
about policies which were taken by government as well as their implementation and their causes
on people by the health promotion (Rhee and Parsons ,2019 ).
HEALTH PROMOTION AND TARGET GROUP
Health promotion is very appropriate and relevant nowadays. According to studies, the
affirmative response of target population contributed and the policy further taken till now. As the
health and social well being are considered and obtained by many factors outside the health
system, therefore which consist socio-economic conditions, sequence of consumption of food as
(Rhee and Parsons ,2019 ). In this stream of health promotion and disease prevention, as the
target group of individual with their estimated identical characteristics are considered who are
generally objectives of health care promotion. Among promotion it is compulsory for the disease
prevention intervention.
In order to reach the target groups for an particular intervention there are some factors
and conditions on which it depends on. There are as follows
Precise definition and determination of target group's background
The precise definition of target group is important prerequisite for successful
establishment of intervention to gain the group and ultimately it will help to reach and
accomplish the aim of the project. The needs-oriented way can be acknowledged. As it makes a
little sense to address a particular generic group such as females or young generation. It is
concluded as per studies population of this category generally move from one country to another
country and they require basic needs and desired for an intervention.

Individual behaviour and participation
The intervention which highly aimed at expected change in behaviour have a minor
chance for success if the target group 's background that can be termed as their social and
cultural background. Obtaining behavioural changes is crucial and difficult and maintain them
over time to time is mandatory. In order to build the constant behaviour it is compulsory fulfil
the basic needs as well as for an individual. In addition, it is compulsory for audience to be a
active participants . The participants will also contribute in the development as well as
implementation of the project.
HEALTH PROMOTION AIMS
The biggest challenge in 21st century is chronic disease. As the Australia lags well
completely others risk factor as for presentation of chronic disease. The disease which are
considered to be harmful and effective on them as well as their upbringing. There is a strong
evidence about what work should be there in order to bring a positive changes in this present
situations (Woodall and Freeman, 2020).
Due to these issues the mortality rate of indigenous population has been estimated as a
25 percent including adults, aged as well as children. Most Australia adults have attain to high
quality health care for acute and chronic conditions, in addition, the trauma also observed in
number of people. According to the estimated data collection there are 64 percent of people non
indigenous adults and 72 percent of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Adult Population is
found to be obese and overweight. Even a quarter of 23 percent of adults have problem in
regards with high blood pressure and it is tend to be moving in the opposite and wrong way as to
reach target of 2025. Among this 23 percent who smoke daily and 44.5 percent of people do not
indulge them into physical activities.
The studies have proved that there are number of youth who are suffering with problems
in regards with drinking problems. The main population who are related with this issues are
generally youth and teenagers. Estimated data has been collected and it is proved that there are
18.2 percent of people who drink at the level of risk. It is increased by time and currently it is
about 22.7 percent of indigenous people. The university going students are most likely deal with
this type of issues.

HEALTH PROMOTION PREVENTION MANAGEMENT
According to studies, the health professionals identify many working areas in a individual
life. The studies concluded there are number of people who suffered from the problem of
drinking on regular basis. A description of targeted population or community( indigenous who
deal with drinking issues) are considered and focused. The management of health promotion
generally falls on the three category which is primary, secondary as well as tertiary as well. The
primary health promotion can be determined as prevention before it occurs in a body or security
measures are taken before it shows any effect on the body. As it is follows up by immunization
against a habit or disease (Johnson, 2020).
As the drinking is also pre controlled by medications if early detection is performed.
The secondary prevention are termed as reduce the impacts on the living being. As the
drinking consist major impacts on body it lowers immunity level as well as digestions is also
affected through drinking. The prevention can be further taken as providing the basic and
comp0lusory needs of people who deal such as exercise. In addition, it is controlled by
occupying them in a activity. Indigenous people should be aware of these issues as they should
make them learn of consumption of alcohol and others uses of substances can be termed as
harmful as they have immunity system low due to their diet. Lastly the tertiary prevention
includes aims and objectives in regards with of soften the impacts which are ongoing illness or
injury that has been there foe lasting its effects. Examples can be considered as cardiac stroke,
programs of rehabilitation as well as chronic disease management programs that can be diabetes,
depression etc. for many health issues and problems, a specific combination of primary,
secondary as well as tertiary interventions are provided and indulge in order to obtain meaningful
degree of protection and prevention. The strategies should be further taken for the improvement
and should be consider as major concern for populations.
STAKEHOLDERS AND COMMUNITY CONSULTATION
The consultation among stakeholders in the filed of health has it indicates that the
beneficial impacts on the approach to public heath which an be concluded as providing
sequences and alignment with the collaboration of state sustainability strategies. It also may
provide trust in a community by giving appropriate opportunities for better inputs at the early or
pre stages of symptoms of drinking. As it also promote better understanding of communities as
well as stakeholders by the proponents. The proponents do have number of opportunities in order

to identify and target the particular elements of community issues. The arise of proponents
benefits with a better proposals, it tend to decrease the risks and termed as save time and cost and
over all better indication of success which can be obtained at early stages (Woodall and Freeman,
2020). The good awareness is provided it majorly debits principle of transparency and
accountability as well.
HEALTH LOGO
Health is defined as being free from illness or injury. Health promotion motive is
to protect the health of the public including population, communities, individuals etc. Now days
health is very relevant today number of diseases are increasing everyday, peoples must make
healthier choices and reduce the risk of chronic diseases e.g. for diabetes, asthma, respiratory
issues, heart diseases.
Impact of drinking alcohol on health
Majority of peoples are drinking now days which is affecting their health and increasing
their health issues .Excessive drinking alcohol can harm the health. Drinking alcohol too much
led to about 95,000 deaths and 2.8 million years of potential life lost. Use of excessive alcohol
can develop chronic diseases including liver disease, stroke, high blood pressure , heart disease
and digestive problems. Long term alcohol causes liver inflammation and liver disease, this
inflammation may lead to cirrhosis. Liver diseases are very threatening they build up waste and
toxins in the body and there are chances of liver damage too. Drinking alcohol reduces life
expectancy and quality of life. Group of people should stop drinking , if they do then above
mentioned diseases would genetically transfer. By quitting alcohol lengthen the life and decrease
risk factor of chronic diseases.
HEALTH PROMOTION ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION
The health promotion activities should be taken further in order to spread awarenesses of
essential elements which are affecting the indigenous population. As the number of people are
illiterate and they should be learnt about other harmful diseases as well. As the situation of the
community group is crucial and population is large so the awarenesses should be spread in form
of advertising it on board and should be noticeable. Health programs and group setting should be

conducted for drinkers as well so that they should be aware about the what drinking can cause if
consumption of long term will be there (Johnson, 2020).
The health promotion can be conveyed through basics things as well such as newspapers,
magazines, templates, surveys etc. In order to educate children there should be school visits,
radio shows in their native language so that each and every person of community should be
addressed, acknowledged and learnt about their issues and their causes.
HEALTH PROMOTION EVALUATION PROPOSAL
According to Studies, there are several evaluation which are obtained. As these
evaluation are distinguished in parts on the basis of their framework. They formative, process,
outcomes and impacts (Eriksson and Dellve, 2020). In this case, the evaluation of a new strategy
should be there such as campaigns for rehabilitation from alcohol for youth. In this the main aim
and objectives should be considered as to provide better learning of causes due to drinking.
Proper medications should be provided in order to reduce cravings of drug or alcohol.
When the evaluation of plan is established then there there should be implementation of
these strategies on the targeted audience. According to studies, although it is time taking process
to make someone free from habitats which an individual followed by many years (Rhee and
Parsons ,2019 ).
CONCLUSION

communities to choose healthy behaviour and reduce risk of developing long-term diseases, this
process encouraging peoples to improve their health. Health promotion support an active life-
style, healthy food choices and helping peoples to achieve their fullest health potential. The
outcome is that to prevent diseases and promote health is both valuable and effective.
