The definitive guide to planning effective, theory and evidence driven, community engaged health promotion programs

Intervention Mapping: Health Promotion Planning, Implementation, and Evaluation is the essential, hands on resource for students, researchers, and practitioners seeking to design, implement, evaluate, and sustain impactful health promotion interventions in partnership with the communities they serve. This authoritative text provides a clear, step by step framework for translating theory, evidence, and lived experience into effective, real world solutions.

Through a structured series of tasks and decision points, readers learn how to systematically plan health promotion programs and interventions that address behavior and environmental change across multiple levels. The book demystifies how to integrate theoretical constructs, empirical evidence, and community partner insights into coherent, practical intervention designs-without oversimplifying the complexity of real world contexts.

A central strength of the book is its emphasis on meaningful community engagement and cöcreation throughout the planning process-from needs assessment and priority setting to intervention design, implementation, and evaluation. Readers gain practical guidance on working collaboratively with partners to ensure programs and interventions are relevant, acceptable, feasible, and sustainable.

Fully updated, this new Fifth Edition brings the latest theories and research to bear on the Intervention Mapping process. Readers also benefit from a companion website offering lecture slides and a test bank-making this an ideal text for both classroom use and professional practice.
