This virtual workshop is presented by the Tamarack Institute.

The work you do within your collaboration and alongside communities to create systems change starts and succeeds with trust. Trust is your most powerful tool, yet in so many collaborations, trust is assumed, but not intentionally built.

When trust is strong, we design together, act together, and advocate together. But when it’s missing? We retreat into turf - guarding our work instead of building shared power.

This webinar is presented by the National Collaborating Centre for Determinants of Health (NCCDH)

To address the structural determinants of health, public health must work to build power with communities facing inequities and disrupt the power of those who use it to maintain the status quo. Community organizing is a proven strategy to build community power, yet these strategies remain an underdeveloped area for public health practice. Join this webinar to learn more about what community organizing is, the strategies that organizers use, and how public health can partner with community organizers and harness the strategies to address the structural and social determinants of health.
