[Resumen] La promoción de la salud es un proceso esencial, no exclusivo de las intituciones sanitarias. La promoción de la salud incluye también estrategias políticas, económicas, educativas y sociales. El principal objetivo de este trabajo es resaltar la relevancia de la promoción de la salud, atendiendo a su conceptualización y algunas de las estrategias principales que se pueden desarrollar. Respecto a ello, tienen una relevancia especial las estrategias que no están centradas exclusivamente en el individuo, sino que también toman en consideración el contexto comunitario. Pueden implementarse diferentes estrategias y su nivel de éxito dependerá, en muchos casos, de la interrelación con otras estrategias, la adaptación al contexto, la participación comunitaria y la utilización de recursos de la comunidad.
