Content Tracks
Effective Health Communication
Health communication plays an important role not just in disseminating health information, but also in influencing health behavior, supporting individuals’ desires for optimal health, improving communications between practitioners and the public, and facilitating collaboration. Sessions in this track will share key communication strategies that have demonstrated impact in health improvement at the individual, community, and institutional level.
We encourage session proposals that will highlight:
- Use of storytelling and public narrative to catalyze action.
- Specific tools and evidence-based practices used to assess organizational capacity to implement effective health communication and measure impact of health communication.
- Utilization of both qualitative and quantitative data
- Use of the Health Equity Guiding Principles of Inclusive Communication
