Designing communication strategies to support a public health intervention is a multifaceted and complex skill, which requires careful preparation, logical thinking, and creativity, at the same time being based in theory and evidence. There is no recipe to follow, but rather a set of interrelated issues to consider when developing a coherent and workable plan.

This program focuses on the development and execution of a planned communications strategy for a public health organization that is responsible for a community-based intervention. The program also features a review of basic theory and research that can inform the health communications process.
