About this workshop

We will explore how research and evidence can drive real‑world impact through strategic communication. Using case studies, we’ll trace the journey from published evidence to policy adoption highlighting how clinicians, educators, and advocates can amplify findings through networks, organisations and influencers.

We will demonstrate how child health research, integrated from diverse disciplines, can be communicated across a range of platforms. Participants will learn practical techniques to translate studies into compelling messages, engage stakeholders, and embed evidence into guidelines and policies. We aim to empower attendees to become change agents ensuring that research doesn’t just inform but transforms care for children.
