Subject: New HIFA discussion: Effective communication of health research, 5 September to 7 October 2022

For distribution please.

Dear SuSanA colleagues,

I would like to invite you to join HIFA (Healthcare Information For All) for a new in-depth discussion supported by TDR, the Special Programme for Research and Training in Tropical Diseases at WHO: Effective communication of health research, 5 September to 7 October 2022

Here are the guiding questions:

1. What do we mean by ‘Effective communication of health research to policymakers?’ How do we measure it?
2. What are the different approaches to communicating research (eg academic journals, policy briefs, interaction with policymakers, press releases, social media, infographics, use of video)? What is your experience with these approaches? What works and what doesn't?
3. What is the role of researchers in research communication, beyond publication of their paper? What is the role of other stakeholders (eg
communication professionals, editors, media, public health professionals and critical thinkers)
4. What are the needs and preferences of policymakers?
5. What can be done to better support researchers in the communication of health research?
