Chair of Partners Group: Denise Gray-Felder, Rockefeller Foundation dgray-felder@rockfound.org Director: Warren Feek wfeek@comminit.com Website: http://www.comminit.com *** HEALTH COMMUNICATION ANTHOLOGY Upon a request from the Pan American Health Organization, several months ago we invited, through the Drum Beat and Son de Tambora networks, your opinions with regards to a set of materials we described as a Health Communication Anthology. The objective of this exercise was to offer social change communication practitioners and academics a set of materials that have already been used with success in the field and have the recognition of people working in communication and development. Below you will find the results of this process, which included several steps: * CI/CILA put together an initial list of 45 materials. * This list was shared with a group of experts working in the field of health communication who provided initial feedback, leading to a final list of 61 materials. * Dissemination of this list to the health communicators within both networks with 3 specific questions: 1) feedback on which materials thought best; 2) which materials should not be part of the anthology; and 3) which other materials should have been included in the final list. * A follow up process by which CI/CILA contacted organisations and individuals to ensure that materials suggested for inclusion in the Anthology were either available via Internet or through any other means. Those materials for which CI/CILA were unable to get specific contact information were left out of the Anthology. For further information about this process, please contact Rafael Obregon obregonr@paho.org or Juana Marulanda jmarulanda@comminit.com THE RESULTS This process resulted in a current total (April 2003) of 109 materials including print publications, online documents, summaries, CD-ROMs, and videos. These materials range from research documents to guides, to factsheets and worksheets for field workers, to case studies, to reports, to policy papers, to analyses of programming activities, to field-tested materials used within campaigns. We look forward to this list continuing to grow as we receive additional suggestions through this continuing process. Although this Health Communication Anthology is meant to be a resource for academics and practitioners working primarily in the field of health communication, many of the materials may also be very useful in other communication areas.
