Abstract：80% of Chinese population are peasants,so the focus of health work should be put into villages. While the cost-benefit of health education is great,it is a key to “health for all”.Yunnan is located in southwestern China with 25 ethnic minority nationalities. There are about 10million people in 73 poverty counties in this province. With our practice, participatory rural health education (PRHE)is proved practicable in poor rual areas of Yunnan Province. It is different from other methods. The heart of PRHE is to build up the potential of local people,so that they can analyze and understand their own problems,realize their own potential,and be able to solve their own problems. Moreover,the government's participation and community development are also important.
