About

A planning committee of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine will organize a public workshop to explore the current health information environment as it pertains to public trust and behavior change. It will also explore how federal health agencies can communicate effectively within the current information environment and what is needed to support effective health communication moving forward.

Key questions discussed at the workshop will include:

1. What does the current health information environment look like? What forces are shaping it? How does trust and mistrust form online and through practices of sharing health information?

2. What roles do federal agencies currently play in providing health information and helping people navigate misinformation? How do they interface with each other and other providers of health information, including trusted community level voices?

3. How can federal agencies build greater capacity to operate and communicate effectively within the current health information environment and to work in coordination with each other and other providers of health information? How can the federal government communicate in ways that build trust and minimize distrust, particularly among underserved communities?

4. How can the federal government keep current on the ever-evolving health information environment--through research, coordinated learning activities and/or a community of practice?
After the workshop, a proceedings of the workshop will be prepared by designated rapporteurs in accordance with National Academies' guidelines and shall be released to the public.
