Over the past two years, a Task Force of the Working Group on CBPHC has been guiding a review of the effectiveness of CBPHC in improving child health. This review has now drawn in the active collaboration of a distinguished Expert Review Panel, the World Health Organization, UNICEF, and the World Bank.
This workshop will review the findings of the review and its implications for policy, practice and research. In addition, several exemplary case studies of outstanding examples of CBPHC in improving child health will also be presented.
Sessions will be highly interactive. Participants from all levels of public health experience, from students to highly seasoned professionals, are welcome.
Registration for the APHA Annual Meeting is not required.
Fee: $10 (payable at the door)
