Public Health Officers within the Ministry of Health, Wellness and Elderly Affairs recently got the opportunity to participate in a one-day workshop on Advanced Crisis and Emergency Risk Communication (CERC) and Social and Behaviour Change (SBC). The workshop was aimed at building the capacity of participants to plan, evaluate and implement risk communication strategies before and during a disaster or public health emergency. At the end of the workshop, participants are expected to be better able to utilize the tools and strategies to influence health-related behaviors and improve health outcomes.
