Abstract:
Contemporary college students have low levels of health literacy, facing problems such as weak awareness of health care, unhealthy diet habits, insufficient physical activity, and inadequate emergency response to public health emergencies. The reasons may be related to weak personal awareness of health literacy, imperfect health education system, shortage of health literacy education talents, lack of family health literacy education, and the insufficient social investment in health literacy cultivation. Faced with this current situation, the government, universities, families, individuals, and society should respond to the call of "Healthy China 2030" Plan Outline, regard improving college students’ health literacy level as their own responsibility, help them eliminate or reduce the risk factors affecting health, improve their health literacy level and quality of life, and contribute to the Healthy China strategy.
