Objective
Health promotion initiatives are in great demand in Ukraine. There has been a sharp increase in the number of adolescents who engage in health risk related behaviours such as smoking and alcohol abuse. The main objective of the proposed project is to train teachers to disseminate the multiple component programme of health promotion interventions for adolescents aged 10-15 developed and successfully pioneered in one rural area of Ukraine to other rural areas of Ukraine. These rural areas are located in 7 oblasts which constitute more than 1/4 of all administrative units of the country where 4165000 rural dwellers or 26% of all rural population reside. The multiple component health promotion programme for adolescents addresses their health needs and takes into account factors that affect their health related behaviours. It is expected that this initiative will lead to prevention of and/or considerable reduction in health risk related behaviours prevalent amongst the target group. Ultimately, it is envisaged to empower adolescents, and to increase the potential for gain in their health status by assisting them in developing control over their health. The effective programme can reach a large number of adolescents residing in rural areas of Ukraine if it is delivered in schools by teachers. Thus, a training programme for teachers will be developed and teachers will be trained to deliver the multiple component programme of health promotion interventions in their schools. The programme will create a network of rural schools and a sustainable web-source of practical knowledge and experience for schoolteachers and schoolchildren involved in health promotion. The programme will reach rural schoolchildren, the communities in which they live and also wider circles of professionals including education and health promotion specialists, journalists and the general public. This initiative is expected to be the next step in health promotion in Ukraine.
