The digital age has profoundly changed the way people engage with each other and the world. The rapid pace of information flow, the rise of
social media influencers and the declining trust in governments and institutions requires a shift in the way the World Health Organization
(WHO) communicates with key stakeholders and the support it provides to its Member States. In the Western Pacific Region, WHO is responding
to this challenge and turning it into an opportunity though the Communication for Health (C4H) approach.
C4H recognises the power of communication as a tool for health. The approach harnesses insights from social, behavioural and communication
sciences to create more targeted, people-centred and impactful communication.
The recording of this webinar is available in our Members Area to AMWA members.
