In this session, we will explore ways to communicate about risk effectively. Through collaborative and interactive activites, participants will:

• gain a deeper understanding of the similarities and differences between risk and non-risk communications
• identify and prioritze target audiences
• develop messages to mobilize knowledge
• select and utilize an appropriate medium
