Catherine Campbell explainsthe programme:Theprogramme will draw primarily on community psychology, criticalhealth psychology and social psychology. It aims to explore the roleof community participation and small-scale collective action inpublic health and health promotion. It pays particular attention tothe psycho-social processes underlying the impact of collectiveaction on health, and the mechanisms through which communitydevelopment approaches may lead not only to improved health, but alsoto transformatory social action. Our starting assumption is thatefforts to promote health and to reduce disease need to combine topdown and bottom up approaches. Whilst the primary focus of the coursewill be the bottom up dimension, emphasis will be continually be laidon the inter-dependence of these two levels of action and analysis.Flyerabout the programme (pdf file) sitenavigation
