    "content": " Hon. Temporary Speaker, one extremely important course is that of health promotion. Doctors have realised that treatment of diseases is not the most important aspect of health. I am very happy that President (Dr) Samoei Ruto has realised that health promotion is extremely important, and ordered the Ministry of Education to not only focus on curative health, but also on preventive health. That is why health education and promotion must be taken seriously. The Departmental Committee on Education can also reach out to the best universities in the world such as Manchester University, the University of Florida, the University of Liverpool, Boston University, Columbia University, the University of Pretoria, and the University of Southern Queensland. When it comes to health promotion, reach out to the best professors like the ones who taught me the same course. I would like to mention their names. They are: Prof. Bjarne Bruun Jensen, Prof. Jen Sagard, Prof. Venka Simovska, and a professor in Australia called Prof. Adrian Bauman. This course was recently started in our country. It is flourishing in other countries through open universities, but we have not been able to embrace it. I hope this House will seriously consider the fact that we need to embrace participatory health promotion. The best way to do it is through this open university, which will be based in Konza. I am excited about Konza. I hope the Open University will also promote tourism. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker."
