About:

Welcome to the Activist Lab Boot Camp, a dynamic self-paced webinar dedicated to advocacy education and practice in the realm of public health. Our mission is clear: to empower participants with the knowledge and skills needed to effect change on critical global health and health equity issues.

This year, our boot camp is laser-focused on the pressing issues of global health and health equity. As our world becomes increasingly interconnected, addressing health disparities and promoting equity on a global scale has never been more vital. Through this intensive program, participants will have the opportunity to delve into these complex issues, learn from experts in the field, and develop practical advocacy skills to drive meaningful change.

The boot camp is designed to provide a hands-on learning experience, combining expert-led workshops, interactive discussions, and practical exercises. Participants will explore key topics such as access to healthcare, social determinants of health, health disparities, and advocacy strategies for promoting health equity on a global scale.

Moreover, the boot camp serves as a platform for participants to connect with like-minded individuals, share insights and experiences, and build a network of passionate advocates committed to advancing global health and equity.

Whether you're a seasoned activist or new to advocacy work, the Activist Lab Boot Camp offers a valuable opportunity to deepen your understanding of global health issues and hone your advocacy skills.
