Planning committees of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine will organize and conduct a series of public workshops featuring invited presentations and discussion to explore how economic systems, as one of the structural drivers of population health, help and hinder population health. The series will apply the following four lenses across three workshops.
(1) Narratives and narrative change;
(2) How the relevant fields and sectors, including community, can work together;
(3) Government and governance, including such dimensions as policy and civic engagement; and
(4) Culture change, including values and norms.
Each planning committee will identify specific topics to be addressed, develop the agenda, select and invite speakers and other participants (with attention to showcasing a wide range perspectives), and moderate the discussions. Proceedings in brief summarizing the presentations and discussions at each workshop in the series will be prepared by a designated rapporteur in accordance with institutional guidelines.
