Globally there are several schools of thought and practice, such as social behavior change communication, (food and) nutrition education, social marketing, health promotion and IEC (information, education, communication). Although they have a lot in common, there are differences in reputation, spread, ideology, practice and effect, and (conspicuously) in terminology.
