Translating Research into Practice: Adapting and Implementing Evidence-Based Public

Catalog description

Evidence-based public health is now recognized as the foundational gold standard for developing programs and interventions to improve population health. In practice, many challenges exist to identifying appropriate evidence-based interventions and adapting them to perform as intended in new settings. This course will examine approaches for selecting, adapting, and implementing evidence-based public health interventions. The framework presented in the course will help prepare students to adapt and implement programs that are theory-and evidence-based, community-based, and reality-based.
