Allan Rosenfield Building (Room 532), Columbia University, 722 West 168th Street, New York

Event Description

Journalism has shaped public health: by translating health evidence for the public, holding powerful officials to account, sounding alarms about neglected threats, and elevating unheralded solutions. This event will consider journalism’s power, and its limits, in shaping health outcomes, and will offer practical guidance for public health practitioners seeking to grow the reach and power of their own voices. Lunch will be served.
