Annual Media Personnel Appreciation Ceremony

The Health Promotion Bureau (HPB) successfully conducted the *Annual Media Personnel Appreciation Ceremony 2025, with the participation of the *Honourable Minister of Health, to recognize the importance of effective communication in advancing national health promotion.

The event brought together media professionals and health-sector stakeholders to strengthen collaboration and promote the effective dissemination of accurate, timely and relevant health information to the public.

In an evolving communication environment, the HPB recognizes the complementary value of traditional media—including television, radio and print—and emerging digital platforms such as websites and social media. Strengthening engagement across these channels is essential to reaching diverse communities and improving health literacy.

The HPB remains committed to working with media and communication partners to develop innovative and effective approaches to health communication and promotion. Together, we can strengthen health communication and contribute towards a healthier and better-informed Sri Lanka.
