Abstract: Introduction: Education is a major component in raising people's awareness of the relevance of environmental health, which is growing concern for many worldwide. Programs for healthcare education have evolved into effective means of raising awareness among more individuals of how their environment influence their health. This study aims to ascertain how these initiatives altered people's perception of environmental health issues and their conduct to be more sustainable. Methods: To ascertain the effectiveness of healthcare training initiatives, we combined many research approaches. Organised lectures, presentations, and hands-on activities all regarding environmental health attracted a mix of community members and healthcare professionals. Polls were conducted both before and after the initiative to gauge the degree of knowledge acquired; in-depth interviews were then utilised to track changes in behaviour and memory over time. Findings: Results revealed that individuals adjusted their way of life to enhance the planet and learnt far more about environmental health. individual’s opinions on sustainability also clearly changed as more individuals yearned to help their local communities to be healthier on Earth. According to the findings, these sorts of training courses can help individuals in both knowledge and behaviour. Conclusion: In increasing public health awareness depends much on programs of healthcare education. These initiatives support good behaviour and community participation in addition to learning more for individuals. This study emphasises the need of teaching environmental health in hospitals as part of community service projects and training courses to equip individuals with knowledge and responsibility, therefore fostering their intelligence.
