Strengthening Global Health Promotion Through Collaboration
As 2025 comes to a close, the International Network of Health Promotion Foundations (INHPF) reflects on a year shaped by shared learning, strengthened collaboration, and collective action across its global Network. Throughout the year, members and partners worked together to advance health promotion systems and reinforce the value of prevention in diverse country contexts.
Key Highlights from 2025
Advancing Knowledge and Evidence
In 2025, INHPF published the Healthy Eating and Physical Activity Report Cards, offering a comparative overview of policy approaches, system responses, and implementation experiences across Full Members. These publications supported evidence-informed dialogue and contributed to shared learning on prevention and health promotion.
The Network also released new articles and infographics highlighting member experiences, strategies, and lessons learned, further strengthening INHPF’s role as a platform for knowledge exchange.
