Journey of INHPF
Welcome to the International Network of Health Promotion Foundations (INHPF), a global initiative dedicated to enhancing health promotion efforts at both national and sub-national levels. Since our establishment in 2000 by pioneering organizations such as VicHealth, Healthway, SwissHealth, AustrianHealth, and ThaiHealth, we have been committed to strengthening the capacities of countries worldwide to improve the health of their populations.
For over two decades, INHPF has made significant contributions to advancing health promotion through active participation in global conferences and collaborative projects. Our network continues to grow, integrating more members and expanding our impact.
