Advancing Environmental Health Equity through Implementation Science: February 28th‐March 2nd
Virtual Workshop
Our environment, including exposures in the physical, built, and social environments, can negatively affect the health of
individuals and communities. These environmental exposures disproportionately impact racial and ethnic minority
groups, disadvantaged and under‐resourced communities. Given the interconnectedness of the environment with
individual‐ and structural‐level social determinants of health, ensuring equitable implementation of interventions,
programs, and policies that prevent or mitigate these environmental exposures is urgently needed. Implementation
science is the study of methods to promote the adoption and integration of evidence‐based interventions, programs,
and policies into community, public health, and clinical settings. The purpose of this workshop is to explore how
environmental health scientists can use implementation science to inform the development, adaptation,
implementation and scale‐up of interventions, practices, and policies to prevent and/or mitigate potentially harmful
environmental exposures and ultimately advance environmental health equity.
This workshop will provide attendees with several opportunities for active participation! Moderated panel sessions will
allow for large group discussion with panelists while breakout and networking sessions provide opportunities to foster
collaboration.
Workshop topics include:
•
What is Implementation Science & Why does it Matter for Environmental Health?
•
Implementation Science in the Context of Environmental Health Disparities & Environmental Justice
•
Evidence‐Based Prevention & Interventions
•
Emerging Environmental Health Issues (e.g., climate change, disasters)
•
Community & Multi‐Sectoral Partnerships
•
Navigating Implementation Science Funding Opportunities
This workshop is supported by NIEHS, NCI, OBSSR, NHLBI, NICHD, NIMH, FIC, ODP and NIMHD, and is free and open to
the public. To learn more, view the agenda and register (INSERT EVENT WEBPAGE LINK).
