HURRICANE KATRINA
In reference to the Hurricane Katrina incident in North America. What are the best messages and channels in given crisis situations?
What is the theory of PRECEDE - PROCEED? How is said theory applied to determine specific program goals in health communication planning? Should theory, PRECEDE - PROCEED make a difference for a population (marginalized)? Especially if PRECEDE - PROCEED was used to assess compliance for emergency preparedness with a goal of population health?
What objectives should a public health communication specialist, keep in mind when forming behavioral, social and organizational objectives towards a prospective goal?
What skills does a population health communication specialist need to be effective in crisis contexts?
Hi Althea
Sounds like some complicated stuff you are working through but no doubt this will become more important in lieu of the greater likelihood or more extreme weather events in the future. I suspect you will need to triangulate sources to address this. However, one such source which maybe useful (and no doubt there are related documents in other jurisdictions) but the Public Health Association of Australia has a statement of core and emerging public health functions which may provide some guidance and also some resources relating to disaster management. Wishing you every success with this project.
best wishes
Paul
