| Whether you have just begun your environmental health practice or are a seasoned professional, this session features useful tools and approaches for retooling how we conduct our work. Through a diverse set of presentations on a variety of issues, we will learn about useful methods for obtaining effective results in our environmental health practice. Presentations will describe: participatory research practices; strategies that leverage laws for primary prevention; approaches for multi-sector, multinational program development; new technologies to facilitate coordinated multi-agency data collection; and evidenced-based multidisciplinary approaches in policy making on environmental health issues. | |||
| Learning Objectives: At the conclusion of this session, participants will be able to: 1) describe processes for engaging and collaborating with community stakeholders; 2) recognize the power of the federal laws as tools for primary prevention; 3) recognize the challenges of implementing environmental public indicators in a bi-national, multi-program setting; 4) describe the value of paperless data collection; and 5) describe how to apply a multi-disciplinary approach to environmental health issues characterized by lack of evidence based guidelines. | |||
