Show Notes Chapter Markers

The Socioecological Model has been widely adopted in public health, and an understanding of this framework is essential for becoming an effective public health advocate and practitioner. This model can also provide insight into the reasons why public health issues such as COVID-19 disproportionately affect some populations. In this episode of the Public Health Insight Podcast, we bring the conversation full circle by using COVID-19 as a case study to apply the principles of the socioecological model. 

We want to find out from our audience of public health practitioners at various stages in their careers - how do you apply the socioecological model in your work? What are some success stories or challenges you’ve experienced while incorporating this model into your work? Message us through social media or by email, we’d love to hear your thoughts.
