Assessment: Collecting and analyzing data to understand the scope and impact of health issues. Policy Development: Formulating policies and guidelines based on the evidence gathered to address public health issues. Implementation: Putting policies and programs into action to improve health outcomes. Evaluation: Assessing the effectiveness of public health interventions to ensure they achieve their intended outcomes.
