Hello everyone -
Please see the below announcement for a webinar on health and
transportation (with AME70's very own Dave Ederer!)
Vision Zero Network and the American Public Health Association (APHA) are
collaborating on a webinar on April 25th at 2pm ET / 11am PT. Joined by
David Ederer of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC),
Meghan Mitman of Fehr & Peers, and Tiffany Smith of Vision Zero Network,
this webinar will discuss the role of transportation professionals in
public health, what safety strategies align with public health principles
of injury prevention, and highlight ways transportation practitioners can
move past critical institutional barriers to embrace more effective,
equitable, and proactive approaches to improving safety outcomes. This
webinar is a great opportunity to learn more about how to translate public
health principles to roadway safety in ways that go beyond collaborating
with public health to institutionalizing public health principles. And if
you’ve been hoping to connect further with your public health partners at
the city, county, and state levels, we encourage you to invite them to
join. Sharing this webinar with them could also be a great stepping off
point for discussion around further collaborative efforts. Join the webinar
here <https://apha.zoom.us/my/environmentsection> on April 25th.
