This course has been designed to provide you with the foundations for public health practice and it has been based in part on the document Core Functions of Public Health. While this document was written some years ago it still provides a very good description of what public health practitioners actually do. Look at the 9 core functions of public health. Do you see evidence of a new public health approach in the well-established and emerging roles? Discuss.
The Public Health Association of Australia is the principal non-government organisation for public health in Australia and works to promote the health and well-being of all Australians. Familiarise yourself with this organisation by visiting the web site. Does it reflect the new public health?
