Decision-making in bother the public and private sectors should clearly reflect a commitment to social responsibility. Policies and practices should enhance health through principles that avoid harming the health of the individual, promote environmental protection and sustainable use of resoucres, restrict the production and trade of harmful substances, and safegaurd the citizen in the marketplace and workplace.
 * Promote Social Responsibility for Health**

Both public and private sectors should promote health by pursuing policies and practices that avoid harming the health of individuals, protect the environment and ensure sustainability of resources, restrict production of and trade in inherently harmful goods and substances, safegaurd both the citizen in the marketplace and the individual in the workplace, and include equity-focused health impact assesments as an intergral part of policy development.

Countries need to evaluate their current level of investment in health. Many countries do not provide sufficient investment or, if they do, that investment is poorly directed. Increased investment in health, directed appropriately, can enhance health and quality of life. This is especially so for groups in which health inequities exist.
 * Increase Investments for Health Development**

Increase investments in health development requires a truly multi-sectoral approach. Investments for health should reflect the needs of particular groups such as women, children, older people, indigenous, poor and marginalised populations.

Health promotion requires the cooperation of all sectors-both in government and non-government spheres. Strong partnerships, in which expertice and resources are shared, need to be fostered.
 * Consolidate and Expand Partnerships for Health**

Partnerships offer mutual benefit for health through the sharing of expertise, skills and resources.

Countries should develop an infrastructure that promotes intersectoral collaboration and the sharing of rescources and information. Details regarding effective health promotion measures and any other valuable information should be shared between and within countries.
 * Secure Infrastructure for Health Promotion**

Incentives should be developed to influence the actions of governments, non-government organisations, educational institutions and the private sector to make sure that resource mobilisation for health promotion is maximised. All countries should develop the appropriate political, legal, educational, social and economic environments required to support health promotion.

The potential of an individual or community to take action to improve health can be limited. Improving the capacity of the individual or community to act will rely on access to the health promotion process. The Jakarta Declaration states that: 'Health promotion carried out //by// and //with// people, not //on// or //to// people.'
 * Increase Community Capacity and Empower the Individual**

Health promotion is carried out by and with people. It improves both the ability of individuals to action and the capacity of groups, organisations or communities to influence the determinants of health. Improving the capacity of communities for health promotion requires public education, leadership training and access to resources. Empowering individuals demands more consistent, reliable access to the decision-making process and the skills and knowledge essential to effect change.
