The overall aim is to work with health promotion on a local and global level. The focus is on nutrition and health in a practical perspective for example through sustainable health solutions and its consequences. A possible case to work on during the studies could be: “How does food production affect the environment and what can be done to make food production more sustainable?” another case could be: “How can school meals be improved in a more sustainable direction?” Another aspect of the programme is inequalities in health. Focus is both on differences between countries but also within specific countries. Issues in regard to malnutrition can be seen not just in developing countries but in developed countries as well. The aim is also to work holistically with health interventions both for individuals and groups. That means that project management and public health promotion are essential skills to be learned. Further skills in communication are important in order to understand individuals and the communities that they are influenced by. Therefore the programme includes psychological, educational and sociological theories.
