Countries around the world, from Britain to the US, are increasingly warning about the link between alcohol consumption and cancer risks. Public health campaigns are pushing for awareness and encouraging responsible drinking habits.

R U OK? have a dedicated day annually on the second Thursday in September which many organisations highlight. This year's day is today. #ruok #mentalhealth #healthcampaigns
In 2018, The Blue Tree Project was formed. It encourages mental health awareness by painting trees blue or erecting blue tree sculptures. This picture is of my local CWA with the blue tree outside their hall. #cwa #ruok #thebluetreeproject #mentalhealth #healthcampaigns
Part of the R U OK? campaign is following a four-step process as in this poster. #ruok #mentalhealth #healthcampaigns
R U OK?, a suicide prevention organisation, was founded in 2009 by Gavin Larkin and Janina Nearn. It's focus is on helping people with their mental health through connection, sometimes simply by asking "Are you okay?". #ruok #mentalhealth #healthcampaigns
Australia was declared rubella-free in 2018 but the risks are still there from other countries so women are still advised of the risks as in this current poster. #healthcampaigns #propaganda #vaccinations #rubella
This New Zealand poster about rubella in pregnancy is from 2020. #healthcampaigns #propaganda #vaccinations #rubella
This is a common poster explaining Congenital Rubella Syndrome but I have been unable to find the original source. #healthcampaigns #propaganda #vaccinations #rubella
The link between rubella and birth complications was discovered in 1942 and a vaccine was authorised in 1969, four years after "Time" highlighted what it called "a little-publicized epidemic". #healthcampaigns #propaganda #vaccinations #rubella
Australia's anti-smoking campaigns also provide on supporting the person trying to quit as in this 2019 poster. #propaganda #healthcampaigns #quitsmoking
The sharp honesty of the anti-smoking campaigns in Australia is often combined with the famous laconic and dry Australian humour as in this 2018 poster. #propaganda #healthcampaigns #quitsmoking
The anti-smoking campaigns in Australia are characterised by a sharp honesty such as this 2022 poster. #propaganda #healthcampaigns #quitsmoking
As someone who grew up in Western Australia, I am used to anti-smoking campaigns but haven't been able to find many posters from historical campaigns so I am going to focus on contemporary posters starting with this 2022 poster. #propaganda #healthcampaigns #quitsmoking
This current New Zealand health campaign urging measles vaccination is aimed at young adults. #healthcampaigns #measles #vaccination #immunisation #medicinehistory
By 2014, vaccination levels had dropped and measles was surging, leading to new campaigns such as this one illustrated by Sophie Blackall using her popular characters, Ivy and Bean. #healthcampaigns #measles #vaccination #immunisation #medicinehistory #sophieblackall #ivyandbean
The initial measles campaigns were so successful that, as living memory of the effects of the disease faded, campaigns changed to reminders of the need to vaccinate. This US poster is from 1980. #healthcampaigns #measles #vacination #immunisation #medicinehistory
The first measles vaccine became available in 1963 and has been an ongoing source of public health campigns since. This poster was used in the UK from 1969 to 1987. The measles vaccine was introduced in the UK in 1968. #healthcampaigns #measles #vaccination #immunisation #medicinehistory
"Life. Be In It" lost its government funding in 1981 as more elite campaigns were favoured. It still exists (https://lifebeinit.org/ as a private organisation. It had an extraordinary reach and is still a recognised brand today. #propaganda #lifebeinit #healthcampaigns #advertising
Some of the characters in the "Life. Be In It" campaign were based on well-known characters including "Aunty Ivy" who was based on Ivy Lovric (1921-2011). Lovric had a newspaper column and talkback radio show about gardening. #propaganda #lifebeinit #auntyivy #healthcampaigns #advertising
The "Life. Be In It" campaign was such a success in Victoria that it was rolled out across Australia in 1978 by the Federal government. #propaganda #lifebeinit #healthcampaigns #advertising
A long-lasting Australian public health campaign launched in 1975 with the slogan "Life. Be in it." It was a collaboration between Phillip Adams and Alexander Stitt of Monahan Dayman Adams for the Victorian government. #propaganda #lifebeinit #advertising #healthcampaigns
Our second influenza poster was done by "Hanlon" for the United States Shipping Board Emergency Fleet Corporation in 1918. #pandemic #flu #influenza #spanishflu #healthcampaigns
I'm planning to investigate public health posters for the next few weeks, starting with the major influenza epidemic at the end of the First World War beginning with this 1918 poster by the Rensselaer County Tuberculosis Association. #pandemic #flu #influenza #spanishflu #healthcampaigns
