The term health education refers to the communication of knowledge relating to health literacy and also to develop the skills needed for the health of the individual and of the community.
An example would be the use of condoms to prevent the spread of AIDS. Medical professionals and other related professions conduct plays, workshops, and discussions to educate the poor and those who do not have the knowledge of the spread of AIDS.
The term health promotion refers to the process of mobilizing the members of the community through social media and networking. This involves the organizational processes involved in the work of health education. So to have a proper health education, health promotion is needed.
