Communications Working Group (2002-2006)Purpose: To identify and encourage "best practices" in communicating information about screening mammography, and develop communication materials that countries can tailor for use in their specific populations. Members: Berta Geller (chair), Rachel Ballard-Barbash, Greg Doyle, Livia Giordani, Solveig Hofvind, Larry von Karsa, Andriana Koukari, Noriaki Ohuchi, Gonzalo Pou, Gad Rennert, Hélène Sancho-Garnier, Astrid Scharpantgen, Nereo Segnan, Jane Zapka Activities: The initial assessment of these international communication materials has been summarized in two journal articles that describe the content and types of materials used in different countries:
Following this initial assessment, members from many countries identified the need for hands-on guidance about "best practices" to consider in developing print materials. A sub-group developed Designing Print Materials: A Communications Guide for Breast Cancer Screening, which was published in 2007 to address this need. Authors included Berta Geller, Jane Zapka, Scott Connolly, Caroline Cranos, and Livia Giordano. |
