What term is used to describe programs and strategies designed to target the entire population of a community, such as mass media campaigns?

  1. Preventive Initiatives

  2. Targeted Interventions

  3. Universal

  4. Focused Strategies

The correct answer is: Universal

Universal programs and strategies aim to reach and impact the entire population of a community, rather than targeting specific groups or individuals. Preventive initiatives and focused strategies, while similar in their goal of preventing health issues, are more specific in their targeting and may not reach the entire population. Targeted interventions, on the other hand, focus on specific groups that are at risk for a certain health issue and may not apply to the entire community. Therefore, the most appropriate term to describe programs and strategies that target the entire population is universal.
