This workshop will be held hybrid.
Health care and health policy researchers have many options when it comes to sharing their expertise with policymakers and the public.
One key route: opinion, commentary and 'explainer' pieces published in outlets ranging from news media websites to the opinion sections of academic journals. These persuasive or informative pieces can help bring new data, and previously published findings, to new audiences in order to inform personal health, clinical practice or health policy decisions.
This workshop will explain how to formulate your idea and crystallize your key points, how to pick an outlet to pitch your idea or piece to, how to structure your piece and how to share a published piece once it's out.
This workshop is open to IHPI members and their research staff, or learners working with IHPI members.
