Every day, organizations like yours are challenged to communicate e� ectively about risk so that others can make informed decisions about their health. When done poorly, the information being communicated may pose as great a risk as the hazard itself.

This applied program will provide state-of-the-science knowledge on communicating e� ectively about risk to improve communication outcomes, increase trust in your organization, reduce public anxiety about issues, and help key stakeholders make better decisions.

In order to ensure that risks are communicated e� ectively and with the intended results, you need the practical, hands-on training in risk communication design and delivery that this course o� ers.Learn more:ecpe.sph.harvard.edu/ARC15

Risk communication is used to give governments, corporations, communities, and the general public information to make decisions about hazards which may affect them, such as the likelihood and consequences of a disease outbreak.

Effective communication eases public anxiety and minimizes the possibility of poor outcomes associated with uninformed decision making. This is a practical, hands-on course designed to improve your risk communication abilities.
