摘要

Background and objective

Health promotion in the higher education setting faces the challenge of responding effectively and sustainably to increasing demands on students. This article analyses structural approaches to health promotion in higher education with a particular focus on students and their health and examines to what extent the setting approach is implemented beyond project-based individual interventions.

Methods

The article is based on the interpretation of recent Swiss data on student health as well as on a conceptual analysis of health promotion approaches in the higher education setting, considering international reference frameworks.

Results

The analysis shows that, while the growing focus on mental health is necessary, it is equally important to address not only individual but also structural levels in health promotion.

Conclusion

Sustainable health promotion in higher education requires structural and policy-level embedding, systematic monitoring, and participatory approaches. Health promotion should therefore be understood as a strategic cross-functional task that calls for a shift in how student health is addressed.
