PEI has higher smoking rate and self-reported obesity rate than the rest of Canada, while the rates are lower than the Canadian average for fruit and vegetable intake and physical activity. 12 • The Chief Public Health Office in Department of Health and Wellness (DHW) launched a brand for the Health Promotion Unit called “Live Well PEI", which unifies PEI's approach to promoting healthy behaviors and preventing disease before it occurs.3 38 The DHW and Health PEI are working to focus on the social determinants of health by addressing the root causes of poorer health outcomes (e.g., lack of education and income disparity), which requires a broad collaboration among communities, partner organizations and all levels of government. 12 The Future Goal . • Invest in cost-effective and evidence-based strategies that focus on minimizing early risk factors. Target health inequities to create accessible initiatives that will benefit all Islanders regardless of their race, gender, culture, or socioeconomic status. Enablers for Improving Health & Wellness Adapt the social and fiscal policy to the shift towards wellness, where some of changes is already under development. Investments will continue to be made towards reducing stigmas and promoting health through education and providing skills to self-manage one's wellbeing without medical intervention. Ongoing digital transformation will make information easily accessible and digestible to the public, for them to make more informed decisions. 11
