Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The aging of the population together with progress in knowledge and technology have fostered the development of an advanced society, which procures a longer life to citizens but at the same time is fostering the acquisition of some human behaviors (consumption of processed and high caloric food, pollution, sedentarism, use of personal technological devices and cars) that may increase the incidence of many diseases, in particular, noncommunicable ones.
The implementation of cost-effective interventions on health prevention and disease promotion is one important measure that may improve public health and citizen wellbeing and decrease health and social care costs, as well as the impact of diseases in the workforce and global economy.
For this Special Issue on “Implementation of interventions in public health”, we invite you to submit articles related to evidence of successful implementation frameworks, or innovative interventions in public health carried out at different scales and in different settings (such as education, social, labor, and health systems) that may increase the sustainability of health and social care systems and the wellbeing of citizens.
Dr. Antonio Sarria-Santamera
Guest Editor
