Summary

The linkage between lower educational levels and poorer health has been highlighted as a mechanism contributing to social inequality in health. However, more research on this mechanism among youth is needed, e.g. to ensure timing of primary prevention of diseases. Additionally, health literacy (HL) has been increasingly recognized as a means of reducing health inequalities. However, knowledge on best practice for HL interventions among youth is scarce. The aim of this project is to develop, test, and evaluate an integrated, participatory intervention to improve HL among young adults in Danish school settings.
