Please join us for Prevention Institute’s upcoming learning session: Uplifting Contextual and Experiential Evidence: Best Practices and Recommendations on Wednesday, July 17 at 10-11:30am PST / 1-2:30pm EST.
Join this session with Prevention Institute and CDC’s Division of Violence Prevention to learn about the principles, strategies, and recommendations from the Uplifting Contextual and Experiential Evidence: Best Practices and Recommendations report.
Building off of the CDC's Framework for Thinking about Evidence, UCEE seeks to elevate and integrate Contextual (i.e., measurable factors in a community) and Experiential (i.e., the collective experience and expertise of community residents and practitioners, or lived experience) Evidence alongside Best Available Evidence (i.e., peer-reviews, published scientific literature) for evidence-informed decision-making. This project complements Prevention Institute’s Health Equity in Practice (HEiP) modules to embed health equity and racial justice in community safety work to support local government partners preventing multiple forms of violence. Partners from different sectors, e.g., government, community-based organizations, philanthropic, and others, may find added value in attending this session together.
Register here to:
