The concept of determinants of health has evolved significantly over time. The Industrial Revolution marked a shift in thinking about health determinants, moving from a focus on individual factors to a broader recognition of how social, economic, and environmental conditions shape population health. The Digital Revolution and the growing role of artificial intelligence (AI) are broadening our understanding of health determinants further, raising new questions about what influences health and well-being in the modern world.
The health promotion community has always been at the forefront of efforts to address the determinants of health, advocating for multisectoral action and policy responses that tackle structural inequalities and challenge the practices of health-harming industries. In the face of new opportunities and problems presented by digital transformations, the health promotion community has now been called on to lead the charge in addressing the digital determinants of health.
