Abstract
In recent years, migration of rural populations to urban centers has become more prevalent due to the industrialization of countries and social inequities. Rural areas are an essential component of health for the community through four key dimensions: ensuring food security, environmental protection, preventing slum formation, and addressing population aging. This article provides a brief overview of each dimension, emphasizing the need for policymakers and managers to prioritize preserving rural areas and improving the livelihood of rural residents, demonstrating a strong commitment.
