Public Health

Public Health refers to the science and practice of protecting and improving the health of populations through education, policy-making, and research for disease and injury prevention. It encompasses a broad spectrum of activities aimed at promoting health, preventing disease, and ensuring access to health care services. Public health initiatives typically focus on issues such as sanitation, infectious disease control, health promotion, epidemiology, and health education. It works at both the community and national levels to address health disparities, implement health policies, and respond to public health emergencies. Ultimately, the goal of public health is to enhance the quality of life and longevity of individuals within a community or society.
