Individuals

The individual is the most fundamental target for health-related change, since it is individual behaviours that affect health status. Communication can affect an individual's awareness, knowledge, attitudes, self-efficacy, and skills for behaviour change. For example, counselling on sexual risk reduction as well as HIV testing is an effective way to change behaviour and protect health.
