Outdoor education is a unique and well-established field of study with significant local and international literature to support it. Over the last 40 years, outdoor education in various articulations, has become a staple of Victorian schooling. Despite the long-standing tradition in Victoria, of offering outdoor education programs and subjects that aligns to the curriculum, there is currently a lack of specific guidance material to help teachers. It serves as a handbook for pre-service teachers and those working in schools alike, to develop contemporary units of work and assessment tasks as part of their schools outdoor education curriculum.

This accessible open-access textbook employs a critical health psychology perspective to health psychology to promote critical reflexive thinking and learning about health and wellbeing, within a social justice framework. The book navigates the reader through a comprehensive examination of contemporary research and theoretical developments in the field of critical health psychology. Organised into three distinct parts, the book radically orients readers to new ways to think about health through:

• incorporating a conscious reflection on and examination of how health is theorised, understood, treated, and promoted for individuals, communities, and societies;
• using a critical psychology lens that centres issues of power and meaning making, including gendered, Indigenous, and intersectional frameworks;
• an openness to, and engagement with, theoretical and methodological pluralism, including quantitative, qualitative and Indigenous approaches to explore people’s experiences and understandings of health and illness;
• explicit attention to socio-political contexts;
• and considering the application of knowledge beyond behaviour change, to social change including community-level (community-led interventions, activism and advocacy) and societal level (e.g., policy, wider discourses).
