About this conference
Public health in the age of deception: Confronting the misinformation crisis. When misinformation spreads as fast as a virus, public health must respond quickly. False and misleading information is eroding trust in public health, widening inequities and undermining prevention efforts. APHA's National Public Health Week Forum will dig into what’s driving the problem of misinformation — and what we can do about it. Join us as we explore practical, evidence-based strategies for cutting through the noise, strengthening clear and transparent communication and helping communities spot credible information. Leading experts will share lessons from recent successes, the importance of cross-sector partnerships and how to prepare today’s workforce to respond effectively in real time. Learn how you can be part of the solution.
