Publisher's Synopsis
The conceptual integration of health promoting programs and structures in research, education and administration is crucial because these programs are becoming increasingly important for universities in the race to gain the best. How do we promote the individual's responsibility for healthy living? How do we promote health as a value in the academic culture? How can we promote the individual health literacy and encourage and develop health promoting structures? The present volume deals with the Healthy-Campus-Konferenz (Healthy Campus Conference) which gave universities and their health initiatives a forum to discuss and optimize their programs. All initiatives deal with the sustainable promotion and empowerment of individual health literacy for all academic target groups (condition oriented prevention) as well as the development of health promoting structures (structural prevention).
