Janette Young

Dr Janette Young works at the University of South Australia and is currently Program Director for the Bachelor of Health Sciences and teaches in the areas of health promotion and health as a social and societal issue. She sees health promotion/salutogenesis as offering creative edges on thinking about health; beyond merely aiming to increase length of life to how we think of health as justice, creativity and thriving; and exploring how we build wellness that is more than just disease avoidance or responding.
