The module aims to teach the planning of health communication campaigns with the help of four international case studies. On the basis of a practice- and research-oriented framework, students apply theoretical knowledge from previous seminars, become sensitized to culturally shaped perceptions of health and disease, deal with diverse media use and communication behaviors, develop target group and context-specific communication measures and critically reflect on them with regard to their implementation.
Learning objectives
• Knowing and applying the steps of evidence-based health campaign planning
• Analysing health problems of the case studies in their specific context and relating them to theoretical models
• Developing and justifying practical, culturally sensitive health campaign approaches with an evaluation concept
• Presenting steps of campaign development and its final concept in English
• Reflecting on own concepts of health/disease and communication patterns and valuing perceptions different than their own
