Join the National Association for Doctors of Public Health (NADrPH) for an interactive webinar led by Dr. Jamie Zimmerman, DrPH, MPH, CHES: Turning Research Into Action: How DrPH Professionals Can Use Evidence, Storytelling, and Strategy to Advance Public Health.
DrPH professionals are uniquely positioned to bridge the gap between research, practice, leadership, and systems change. This webinar will explore how DrPH students, graduates, and public health practitioners can move beyond producing knowledge and use research as a tool for action, advocacy, strategy, and impact. Participants will learn how to translate evidence into clear messages, compelling stories, practical recommendations, and community-centered solutions that resonate with decision-makers, organizations, funders, and the public.
Drawing from applied public health practice, consulting, dissertation research, and health equity work, this session will offer a practical framework for turning research findings into usable products such as presentations, briefs, grant narratives, strategic plans, evaluation tools, training content, and thought leadership. The session will also highlight the importance of storytelling, lived experience, and equity-centered communication in making public health research more accessible, actionable, and influential.
Participants will leave with concrete strategies for strengthening their scholar-practitioner identity, communicating the value of their DrPH training, and using evidence to inform meaningful public health action.
