Our pre-conference and workshops were accepted and we would like to invite you to register (if you have not done that yet!) and join us here

2) Time to upgrade and have Health Promotion pillars to a higher level of impact. Register today and be part of the solution for sustainability with the course “Health literacy and Healthy Lifestyles: from theory to practice!”

This online course aims to explore the role health literacy has in terms of lifestyles towards sustainability. This micro-accreditation (10 ECTS) is the first level of an academic program that, to be developed at three levels, aims to support the deepening of the articulation between lifestyles and health. Information about the HEalthy LIfestyles & Health Literacy Chair Academy (HeLiCA) can be found online here. Enrollment and registrations are carried out until the 23 of September 2023 and exclusively online here
