# Abstract

Environmental public health professionals stand at the forefront of community health protection, uniquely positioned to address the substantial challenges posed by climate change. However, many lack formal training in climate science, potentially limiting their confidence and comprehensive understanding of the key principles, assessment of credible climate information, and ability to communicate effectively about climate change in their professional roles.

This webinar is presented by the International Foundation for Integrated Care (IFIC).

Join IFIC for the first session in their webinar series reflecting on IFIC’s Annual Survey 2024. This hour-long session will bring together individuals with lived experience to share their reactions to the survey results on people-centred care. Participants will explore how the findings align with their personal experiences, discuss key dimensions such as involvement in decision-making and care coordination, and offer insights into what more can be done to truly centre care around people’s needs, preferences, and values.

This event is hosted by the Dr. Peter Centre as part of their National Harm Reduction Capacity-Building Community of Practice Project.

Join the Dr. Peter centre for a Community of Practice call featuring Chris Hoy, Associate Director of Ontario Hepatitis C and Harm Reduction Programming at CATIE. Chris will be sharing insights on CATIE’s new Anti-Stigma Toolkit: Communications Resources for Service Providers.

Misinformation spread through social media has been responsible for an increasing mistrust of public health, particularly amplified during the COVID-19 pandemic. Existing analysis tools of social media and other online content rely on logic and science, often ignoring people’s beliefs, cultural backgrounds and feelings when it comes to understanding health information.
