The Health Communication Hub will crowdsource and curate the best knowledge about health communication research, education, and practice to enable global learning, collaboration, and innovation.
To build global visibility in the Health Communication field, students will manage Hubs that have aircasts (livestreamed zoom discussions) as well as important news and information.
What if ANY educator could – leverage their own media outlet – to enable learners to compete to have the most impact on health consumer awareness & demand? Imagine if educators empowered the healthcare community – to fight mis- and disinformation & promote health together.
Former pilots showed how ‘collective’ civic-engaged scholarship COULD enable us to promote health: (1) Online interns led a media outlet that informed & activated the public, (2) Course-led projects piloted a health fitness communication campaign.
A NEW VISION
Enable ANY educator to LEAD – on ANY health issue. It may be easier than you think to create an online Speak Up Internship to curate its own new media outlet from which to pilot a Speak Up for Sleep Challenge.
Leverage an internship-led social media challenge to
Engage learners to interprofessionally compete to
Activate consumer awareness about what works &
Disseminate EXACTLY where to find it.
