Increasing the Uptake of Power Building for Health

How public health might embrace community power for population health

We explored how well public health understands the importance of community power to health, what is preventing the profession from embracing power-building as a health strategy, and what opportunities in the current landscape might make that embracing more likely. The work included a detailed analysis of how change has happened in public health, including the role of narrative. I did the work through my nonprofit, Bridging Health & Community Inc, in partnership with Collaborative Consulting, a consultancy.
