Policy interventions are deliberate actions taken by governments or organizations to influence health outcomes, often through the implementation of laws, regulations, or programs. These interventions aim to change behaviors, improve access to resources, and address social determinants of health, ultimately impacting population-level health outcomes and individual health behaviors. They are informed by research and theories that guide the understanding of health behavior and the differences between population and individual health needs.
