This 2020 article by Salima Meherali and colleagues discusses a systematic review. The review included studies on health literacy interventions designed to improve health outcomes in low- and middle-income countries.
Researchers found that, overall, the interventions improved health knowledge and outcomes. They also spurred lifestyle changes.
Researchers found that the most successful interventions were:
- · Interactive.
- · Innovative (e.g., using street theater or technology).
- · Multifaceted (i.e., using more than one learning method).
