Abstract
Health education draws together a number of different disciplines such as health psychology, public health, philosophy, policy, science and sociology. These are considered in the models of health that are used by practitioners for individual and collective interventions. Some of the models centre on the idea that individuals can control their health through lifestyle choices, whereas others acknowledge the powerful role of societal structures.
