2. “Technology in Community Health”: This section discusses the role of digital tools and technologies, such as telemedicine and artificial intelligence, in transforming community health by improving access to care and enhancing the efficiency of health services.
3. “Cross-Sector Collaboration”: This section highlights the growing importance of collaboration between various sectors—such as healthcare, education, social services, and urban planning—and explores how working together can address the broader social determinants of health.
4. “Mental Health and Community Well-Being”: This section emphasizes the increasing focus on mental health within community health models, addressing the need for integrated approaches to support community members’ mental and emotional well-being.
Each chapter contributes to a comprehensive understanding of the current shifts in community health, offering innovative insights into how health can be improved through local, collaborative, and technology-driven efforts.
