Completed

Regional focus

North America

Topics

The Roundtable on Health Literacy will host a workshop exploring critical health literacy's (CHL's) role in addressing the social determinants of health. The workshop will explore a variety of CHL skills ranging from the ability to contextualize information to engage in health care decision-making, to the ability to recognize the policy contexts that affect health. The workshop will also explore how these skills support effective social and political action and thus assist individuals and communities in addressing the social environment that shape their health and well-being.
