AB - 
	The paper presents the role of health education as an inseparable element of health promotion.  Both concepts refer to activities that aim to provide support for people to control the factors which may influence their health and to create a healthy environment.  The two concepts are different, however, there is a link between health education and health promotion, human health, which is emphasized as being the common focus of these activities. The relationship between health education and health promotion is discussed on the basis of the National Health Programme for 2016-2020 and one of the habitats of a health promoting school. It is also emphasised that taking care of one’s health is a lifelong process, which can be perceived in health education and health promoting activities.

	In conclusion, it is stated that health education is a necessary tool for health promotion; their combination in various habitats and the areas of social life may induce a synergic effect, contributing to an increase in the effectiveness of the applied health activities.
