Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:More citations needed Шаблон:Infobox government agency The Health Sponsorship Council (HSC) was a New Zealand Crown entity that used health promotion to promote health and encourage healthy lifestyles.
The long-term focus of the HSC was on reducing the social, financial and health sector costs of smoking, skin cancer, problem gambling, and obesity.
HSC communicated with the public using marketing tools such as sponsorship, advertising, partnerships and school-based activities.
HSC’s health promotion activities and campaigns included Slip, Slop, Slap and Wrap; Smoking Not Our Future; Auahi Kore; Face the Facts; Smokefree Schools; Choice Not Chance; Breakfast-eaters have it better; and Feeding our Families.
History
HSC was established in 1990 following enactment of the Smoke-free Environments Act 1990, and dissolved following the enactment of the New Zealand Public Health and Disability Amendment Act 2012.
On 1 July 2012 the functions of HSC were taken over by a new Crown entity known as the Health Promotion Agency (HPA).[1] HPA's work includes all of the HSC's functions as well as those of the Alcohol Advisory Council (ALAC) and some health promotion functions from the Ministry of Health.[1]
Research
HSC undertook and commissioned research to both inform and evaluate its health promotion activities and, in particular, the campaigns. Research findings were published on the HSC website and included insights into health and lifestyles, sun exposure, and attitudes to smoking.
