ADVANCING PUBLIC HEALTH WORKSHOPS

Advancing Public Health Workshops: Using Communication, Marketing and Media to address Public Health Challenges

For questions regarding the Advancing Public Health Workshops, please Email NCHCMMWorkshop@cdc.gov.

The conference will include a unique opportunity to bring together participants and panelists from government, academia and the private sector to discuss how health communication, marketing and media can help address critical public health challenges. The purpose of these sessions is to identify barriers in addressing these public health challenges and explore opportunities for various sectors to work together to advance public health objectives. To facilitate this discussion, participants will be asked to respond to a series of questions in advance of the conference. The sector representatives will have an opportunity to synthesize these comments to use as the basis for the conversation during the conference.
