Event Description
Communicating for Health in a World of Confusion

 

In today’s rapidly changing information environment, healthcare and public health professionals face growing challenges in communicating accurate, trustworthy information. Inspired by themes from Information Sick, this interactive one-hour training explores how shifts in media, journalism, and social media have transformed the way people access and interpret health information. Participants will examine the decline of traditional trusted news sources, the rise of digital and social media platforms, and the resulting impact on public trust, misinformation, and health communication. The session will also highlight practical strategies local health agencies and organizations can use to build credibility, strengthen community relationships, and communicate more effectively in an increasingly complex information landscape.
