Sharing good practice on a visit to Russia
Abstract
Reports on a trip to St Petersburg and Russian attitudes to health education as well as some of the health problems in Russia. Outlines educational practices in Russia – looks at lack of support with regard to the development of health education policies and the growing desire to press for change. Concludes that, in addition to environmental and economic difficulties, there is a substantial threat from the Western problems of alcohol, illegal drugs and HIV; some of the more pressing concerns related to disease prevention and nutritional health have delayed the resources allocated to health education in the curriculum.
