On October 28 2019, the National Academy of Medicine (NAM) will host the fifth meeting of Culture of Health Program’s (CoHP) ongoing stakeholder meeting series to engage allies in the Culture of Health movement. This meeting is focused on messaging health equity and the social determinants of health to build a culture of health in the United States.

Workshop participants will discuss the challenges and opportunities, as well as potential solutions that would enhance social structures and living environments that strengthen socioeconomic and community support to enrich the lives of older adults and ultimately create thriving societies around the world.

The committee on the Future of Nursing 2020-2030 will hold a technical panel and discussion with health care industry leaders to about how their organizations or members prioritize efforts to promote health equity into delivery and care models. The panel and discussion will start at 9am and conclude at 11am ET.

The National Academy of Medicine (NAM) launched the Vital Directions for Health and Health Care Initiative in 2016, which called on more than 150 leading researchers, scientists, and policy makers to provide expert guidance on 19 priority issues for U.S. health policy. The resulting, capstone publication presented a framework for achieving better health and well-being, high-value health care, and strong science and technology for the nation. As an extension of the Vital Directions for Health and Health Care initiative, we are turning our attention to the all-important state level, beginning with a symposium in North Carolina.

On Thursday, November 21 from 2:30-4:00pm ET, the NAM Action Collaborative on Clinician Well-Being and Resilience will host its first webinar for the Clinician Well-Being Case Study Series, highlighting initiatives at The Ohio State University.
