Abstract
Abstract Issue Health awareness plays an important role in strengthening health potential and determines engagement in health promotion and prevention activities, especially during pandemic. For this reason, an innovative approach to health education is necessary to encourage society to become active in this area. Description of the problem The aim of the presentation is to show a model of innovation development in health education called the “PNSVEI” (Problem, Need, Solution, Validation, Implementation). This model has been developed based on the experiences collected during health educational products development and their implementation during regular educational interventions focused on knowledge improvement regarding healthy lifestyle among Polish school students in the last five years. Results The model consists of two main phases: development and validation of solution in health education. The development step involves defining the problem and need of the target group, and solution prototype development based on the defined need and co-creation process. Validation includes experimental prototype testing in cooperation with different stakeholders, final prototype development, possible intellectual property process, than research evaluation and implementation to the society. Lessons The “PNSVEI” Model shows that the research evaluation and innovation implementation in health education area should be preceded by multi-directional actions and requires the cooperation of researchers with different stakeholders. Intellectual property certificates increase possibility to acquire business sponsorship what may give the chances of raising funds for future evaluations of solutions by researchers. Defining the needs of the target group, their engagement in the co-creation process and experimental prototype testing increase the chances of implementing health educational solutions to the population. Key messages Implementation of innovation in health education should be preceded by multi-directional actions. Need definition of stakeholders increase the chance of implementation in health education.
