Chan School of Public Health, Boston, Massachusetts, United States of America.

People are accessing this information in real time via traditional news, online media, and word of mouth. The public’s near-instant access to this unfiltered information presents significant new risks, including reputation damage for companies who cause health or environmental damage, or ineffective policy outcomes when health-related guidance is misunderstood or ignored. This applied program will provide you with the knowledge and skills you need to design effective risk communication messages that improve communication outcomes, increase trust in your organization, reduce public anxiety, and help key stakeholders make better decisions. You will learn from some of the most notable scientists working on risk communication, crisis communication, public health emergencies, behavioral economics, decision making, big data, and public health leadership and how to apply cutting edge ideas in communicating risk in a complex information environment. Participants in this course will explore: • The psychosocial and societal determinants of risk communication through the scientific and systematic overview of risk communication literature • Strategic communication of risk information including audience segmentation, designing messaging, and executing risk communications • Message construction formats for the communication of risk, including fear, narratives, exemplars • Statistical principles to understand how risk information is generated • Behavioral economics and their role in communicating risk • Evaluation of the impact of risk communication with an introduction to major methods such as focus groups, nominal group techniques, surveys, and experiments Objectives & Highlights: When a risk to the public’s health arises, all involved organizations must provide information about the risk and guidance on the most appropriate response. Effective communication eases public anxiety and minimizes the possibility of poor outcomes associated with uninformed decision making. This program addresses these issues by providing the latest science of risk communication, which increases message design and delivery effectiveness. • Develop a state-of-the-science understanding of the individual, psychological, interpersonal, and societal factors that influence the • Impact of risk communications on the public’s risk perceptions, knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors, including compliance • Generation and communication of risk information during crisis and non-crisis periods • Apply this knowledge to designing effective risk communication messages drawing on the science of strategic communication and health communication • Become familiar with and practice methods for evaluating risk communication efforts
