SI 7.1 Core Health Promotion Research Activities at University Level

Srinakharinwirot University (SWU) demonstrates a strong institutional commitment to advancing health promotion through a wide range of research activities conducted across multiple faculties and health-related centres. In the 2025 fiscal year, the University implemented a total of 187 health promotion research projects, covering basic science, applied research, clinical innovation, and community-based health promotion initiatives. These projects are undertaken by academic units such as the Faculty of Medicine, Faculty of Nursing, Faculty of Pharmacy, Faculty of Physical Therapy, Faculty of Dentistry, Faculty of Physical Education, and the Buddhachinaraj Medical Center, reflecting a comprehensive, multi-disciplinary research ecosystem.

The University’s research agenda spans several thematic areas essential to improving population health and well-being, including:

  • Herbal medicine, natural products, and cancer-prevention research, focusing on bioactive compounds and their roles in preventing non-communicable diseases (NCDs).

  • Biomedical technology and diagnostic innovation, including the development of test kits and screening tools for infectious diseases and environmental contaminants that impact public health.

  • Rehabilitation science, fall-prevention programmes, and physical fitness research addressing functional capacity, movement rehabilitation, and physical health in older adults and high-risk groups.

  • Health promotion, nutrition behaviour, mental well-being, and health literacy programmes targeting youth, workers, vulnerable populations, and community networks, with a focus on empowering communities for sustainable self-care.

With 187 dedicated health promotion research projects, SWU has built a significant body of knowledge that drives innovation in preventive health, holistic well-being, and community health development. The University’s research outputs not only contribute to improved health practices within its own healthcare system but also enhance the well-being of surrounding communities through translational research and evidence-based interventions. These achievements strongly align with the criteria for SI 7.1: Core Health Promotion Research Activities at the University Level, as evidenced by official project records from the 2025 health research portfolio.
