This paper aims to explore key elements needed to successfully develop healthy partnerships and collaborative working in community-based health promotion. It draws upon the lessons learned from a case study with the Health Literacy Partnership in Stoke-on-Trent, UK in developing the health literacy strategy in the area. The process was underpinned by respect for diverse yet complementary perspectives and skills from the grassroots up. This involved engagement with key stakeholders, development and support for community projects, and sharing of good practice with other national and local organizations. Stakeholders involved in developing the strategy also had a keen interest in health literacy and a strong commitment to promoting health and well-being in the area. Through patience, perseverance, and continuous open communication and learning, the health literacy strategy in Stoke-on-Trent, UK is beginning to have a ripple effect into local practice, and will potentially influence policy in the future.
本文旨在探讨在社区健康促进中成功发展健康伙伴关系和协作工作所需的关键要素。它借鉴了英国特伦特河畔斯托克健康素养伙伴关系的案例研究经验，为该地区制定健康素养战略。这一过程的基础是从基层开始尊重多样化但互补的观点和技能。这涉及到与主要利益相关者的接触、社区项目的开发和支持，以及与其他国家和地方组织分享良好做法。参与制定该战略的利益相关者也对健康素养有着浓厚的兴趣，并强烈致力于促进该地区的健康和福祉。通过耐心、毅力以及持续的开放沟通和学习，英国特伦特河畔斯托克的健康素养战略开始对当地实践产生涟漪效应，并有可能对未来的政策产生影响。
