Improvement of sanitation, environment and clean water, will substantially reduce the level of pain and severity of various diseases that can improve the degree of public health. But Indonesia still faces Open Defecation Free (ODF) which pollutes the environment. Indonesia ranks second after India (626 million people) as the country with the most ODF, which were 63 million people. In Serang Municipality, Banten Province, there are still 27.2% of people doing defecation in rivers, rice fields and others. The important factor causing it is the habit. The purpose of this paper is to discuss health promotion strategies consisting of advocacy efforts, social support and community empowerment in improving the quality of sanitation in Serang Municipality. The data is the result of group research conducted by researchers at the Research Center of the Expertise Agency of the DPR RI. The study was conducted in Serang Municipality in March 2019. Apart from the habitual problem, there are still many people who defecate in the absence of hygienic toilet facilities at home and ineffective communal toilet programs. The difficulty of getting clean water in the Serang Municipality has caused people further reluctant to make and use healthy latrines. The local government has implemented a health promotion strategy which includes advocacy for DPR and DPRD members to prioritize sanitation issues in Serang Municipality; increase social support from community leaders and conduct community empowerment. AbtrakPerbaikan terhadap sanitasi, lingkungan dan air bersih, secara substansial akan mengurangi tingkat kesakitan dan tingkat keparahan berbagai penyakit sehingga dapat meningkatkan derajat kesehatan masyarakat. Namun, Indonesia masih dihadapi masalah sanitasi yaitu perilaku Buang Air Besar Sembarangan (BABS) yang mencemari lingkungan. Indonesia berada di urutan kedua setelah India (626 juta orang) sebagai negara dengan perilaku BABS terbanyak yaitu 63 juta orang. Begitu pun dengan Kota Serang, masih terdapat 27,2% masyarakat melakukan BABS seperti di sungai, sawah dan lainnya. Penyebab utamanya adalah faktor kebiasaan. Tujuan penulisan ini untuk mengetahui strategi promosi kesehatan yang terdiri dari upaya advokasi, dukungan sosial dan pemberdayaan masyarakat dalam meningkatkan kualitas sanitasi di Kota Serang. Data dalam tulisan ini merupakan hasil penelitian kelompok bersama Tim Peneliti pada Pusat Penelitian Badan Keahlian DPR RI. Penelitian kualitatif dilakukan di Kota Serang pada bulan Maret 2019. Selain masalah kebiasaan, penyebab masih banyaknya masyarakat BABS adalah tidak tersedianya sarana jamban sehat di rumah dan tidak efektifnya program jamban komunal. Sulitnya mendapatkan air bersih di Kota Serang membuat masyarakat lebih enggan membuat dan menggunakan jamban sehat. Oleh karena itu, pemerintah daerah setempat melakukan strategi promosi kesehatan yang meliputi advokasi kepada anggota DPR dan DPRD agar memprioritaskan masalah sanitasi lingkungan di Kota Serang; meningkatkan dukungan sosial dari tokoh masyarakat serta melakukan kegiatan pemberdayaan masyarakat untuk tidak BABS.

Abstract Background The main burden of global morbidity comes from non-communicable diseases (NCDs). As recent data shows, almost 97% of mortality is caused by NCDs in Georgia. According to the WHO, Georgia has one of the highest smoking prevalence in Europe. Effective health promotion strategies are crucial to prevent chronic diseases and to improve health education. The main aim of this scoping review was to analyse the literature on health promotion strategies in Georgia, as well as to provide an overview of current initiatives and activities. Methods Medline and PubMed databases, as well as official government documents and grey literature where used to identify relevant literature. We finalised search by September 2019. Results Our study showed that the Formation of Health Care sector started in 1995 and since then, health promotion has been an important component of Public Health in the country. Moreover, four out of eight main goals of the 'Millennium Development Goals in Georgia' address health issues. Implementation of state programs and public health measures in the field of public health remains a main priority for the 'National Center for Disease Control and Public Health' (NCDC). Working areas of the center include development of health promotion, disease prevention strategies and programs. Currently, the NCDC is implementing nine state programs with this regard. However, our analyses showed that improvement of population's health is a complex process and requires coordinated actions by involving the following sectors: government, health, social and economic, NGOs, local municipalities, media and industrial sectors, health researchers and civil society. Conclusions Our study clearly demonstrates that health promotion strategies are essential for the improvement of nation's general health and welfare. However, increasing tendency of NCDs in the country requires the strengthening of existing programs as well as developing and implementing new strategies. Key messages The health promotion strategy, with its multi-component and multilateral nature, has the greatest potential to improve public health in Georgia. Strategies are particularly effective when it is strengthened by other actions, including partnership, community and intersectional involvement in decision-making.

Health Promotion Strategy

Gender-transformative approaches (i.e., approaches that support male-identified individuals to critique and resist stereotypical male gender role norms that negatively affect health and well-being) are increasingly recognized as a key health promotion strategy. However, there is limited evidence to date on gender-transformative interventions for male-identified adolescents. In addition, given the dynamic and socially constructed nature of gender, methods beyond quantitative data collection are needed to gain a holistic understanding of promising gender-transformative health promotion approaches. One newer method to capture lived experiences with adolescents is photo-based evaluation, where youth program participants take pictures to represent their knowledge, attitudes, and/or behaviors before and after a program. The present study presents findings from the photo-based evaluation of a gender-transformative health promotion program called WiseGuyz. WiseGuyz is offered to mid-adolescent, male-identified youth in school and community settings, and is designed to promote mental and sexual health and prevent violence. Six youth photographers from a rural Canadian setting took part in this evaluation, taking photos to represent what being a guy in their world meant before and after WiseGuyz. Youth then participated in an individual visual storytelling interview and a group-based photovoice process. Key themes in relation to masculinities that emerged from these data were around changes to (1) social norms and (2) emotionality following program participation, and the need for a safe program space to support these changes. This study adds to literature demonstrating the promise of gender-transformative approaches with adolescents, with implications for future health promotion research and practice with male-identified youth.
