Abstract

[Extract] Health promotion academics play a crucial role in strengthening the health promotion workforce via scholarly approaches to training practitioners. This unique issue of the Health Promotion Journal of Australia (HPJA) is supported by the Australian Health Promotion Association (AHPA) and aims to build the evidence base for learning and teaching in health promotion across Australasia. It showcases innovative pedagogical approaches that support students to develop their core health promotion competencies and professional standards; use of specialised learning resources and technologies; development of curricula and resources that reflect best practice health promotion; and assessment and evaluation processes that influence pedagogical developments in health promotion learning and teaching. We celebrate the contributions made by academics to health promotion learning and teaching and the important role they play in educating the next generation of health promotion practitioners who will join the efforts to address local, national, regional and global public health challenges.
