Considered the first modern government document in the Western world to extend the field of health beyond the biomedical healthcare system, the Lalonde report aimed at equipping individuals and organizations with the information and support needed for the development of healthy lifestyles and community environments (Hancock, 1985). In Ottawa, November 1986, the [pb_glossary id=\"775\"]World Health Organization[\/pb_glossary] (WHO) held its First International Conference on Health Promotion, which led to the signing of the Ottawa Charter for Health Promotion (1986). The charter committed to a range of efforts by international organizations, governments, and local communities toward the improvement of health promotion with the goal of \u201chealth for all\u201d by the year 2000 (WHO, 1986). The charter urged action in the following areas:\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400\">build healthy public policy<\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400\">create supportive environments<\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400\">strengthen community action<\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400\">develop personal skills<\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400\">reorient health services<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\nAccess the charter here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.canada.ca\/content\/dam\/phac-aspc\/documents\/services\/health-promotion\/population-health\/ottawa-charter-health-promotion-international-conference-on-health-promotion\/charter.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ottawa Charter for Health Promotion<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/ourbodiesourselves.org\/impact-influence\"><\/a>\r\n<div class=\"textbox\" style=\"border-left: 6px solid #BFBE00;background-color: #fffef2;padding: 1em;margin-bottom: 2em\"><header class=\"textbox__header\"><img src=\"https:\/\/pressbooks.library.torontomu.ca\/accessiblehealthcare\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/422\/2025\/01\/thought-bubble-icon-e1743020612176.png\" alt=\"Thought bubble icon\" width=\"80\" height=\"80\" class=\"alignright wp-image-1127 size-full\" \/>\r\n<h3 style=\"color: #737200;font-weight: bold\">Review and Reflect<\/h3>\r\n<\/header>\r\n<div class=\"textbox__content\">\r\n\r\nNow that you\u2019ve been introduced to health promotion as a framework, take a moment to reflect on your own relationship to healthcare and medicine.\r\n\r\nIf you have completed earlier modules, you might want to revisit your responses to<a href=\"https:\/\/pressbooks.library.torontomu.ca\/accessiblehealthcare\/chapter\/other-models-of-disability\/#Reflect2\"> this set of questions from Module 2<\/a>, also listed below.\r\n\r\nDo your responses still resonate with you?
