The PAHL group aims to use the ‘power of people’ to promote good health in various community groups, and teaching—at both undergraduate and graduate levels—is key in this process. All senior members of the PAHL group play an active role in educating the next generation of health psychologists and health promotion practitioners. Together, they educate thousands of undergraduate and graduate students each year, providing a key bridge for knowledge translation and implementation of psychological science. Members of PAHL have won prestigious teaching, student support, and student supervision awards.
