Question from @Amahulzen
@CatinaOLeary and @DrMagpi
I'd like to know more about health literacy beyond individual consumers of health information. How can a community or population apply health literacy? @Waaph_Advocate @WAAPH_VIP @TheWaaph

@BrightOttoC
Religions in W/Africa have positive values to drive socioeconomic development. However, they can also hamper health development where literacy is low as a result of misinformation from some gatekeepers with other agenda or limited knowledge. #HLLP2020
"One approach is to provide clear and accurate info consistently across trusted sources while teaching/reinforcing what those are."

#healthliteracy #HLLP2020
Sorry to have missed this earlier. This is a huge problem a lot of people are trying to solve because there is so much misinformation out there now. One approach is to provide clear and accurate info consistently across trusted sources while teaching/reinforcing what those are.
7/ #UniversalHealthCoverage is not something that can be achieved easily or quickly. African countries, like others, have to take concrete actions towards it.
Universal coverage is based on the WHO Constitution of 1948 which declares health a fundamental human right &on the
Education is one significant contributor to #healthliteracy but lower education doesn’t eliminate the ability find, use, understand & communicate health info.
Communicators can use more images, video, and verbal discussions to support learning. #HLLP2020

Possible, yes, but unlikely as a requirement in the near future globally. Whenever I’ve been involved in these discussions, I hear that curriculum is already too dense....there doesn’t appear to be motivation to institutionalize #healthliteracy. But would be incredible!
To Q6.
"We need to continue to produce policy briefs &share with identified stakeholders, policy makers &political office holders using verifiable data & statistics" @DrMagpi
#healthliteracy #HLLP2020
6/ Good health is a fundamental goal of all societies. We need to continue to produce policy briefs &share with identified stakeholders, policy makers &political office holders using verifiable data &statistics to drive the fact that has been scientifically proven
To Q5:
"Primary healthcare is the first step on the ladder of healthcare delivery"
Follow the thread for @DrMagpi's response.

5/ Primary healthcare is the first step on the ladder of healthcare delivery. Being the level of care that is closest to the people, there’s no way UHC can be achieved without it.
Looking at the components of primary healthcare - communicable disease control,
and religious sectors on health education and literary? What can be done to strengthen it? #healthliteracy #HLLP2020

The common denominator is health. All these speak to the need to improve knowledge and skills of people through systemic, individual and community approaches so that they make better health choices for better health and well-being for all. #HLLP2020 #healthliteracy
I'd like to know the difference and similarities amongst these 4: #HealthLiteracy , health communication, health education and health promotion? and what are their applicability @CatinaOLeary @DrMagpi #UHC @Waaph_Advocate @WAAPH_VIP @TheWaaph
