Shortages in primary health care providers have driven efforts to identify new resources to support healthy patterns of life. Physician extenders and health promoters have demonstrated efficacy in fostering behavior change, but consistent funding to hire people into these roles has been elusive. Participants in this workshop will reflect on how other countries have addressed this need, hear about early experience with training volunteer youth health promoters, and consult on how insights gained from experience with the framework for action could be brought to bear on this challenge to health equity.

Speakers
