At the heart of our work at the Johns Hopkins Center for Communication Programs is social and behavior change communication, using the latest, evidence-based communication tools and interventions to inspire healthy behaviors worldwide.

Next week, from April 16-20, we will join 1,200 leaders in the field – practitioners, researchers and policymakers – in Nusa Dua, Indonesia, for the 2018 International Social and Behavior Change Communication Summit featuring Entertainment-Education. We are proud not only to participate, but of our role as a Summit Secretariat member helping to convene this event which will highlight what works in our field and feature stimulating conversations about where we are headed.

If you are joining us in Nusa Dua, please visit booths #32 and #33, where you can meet some of the hardworking people who make up the fabric of CCP and learn about our proven tools and how they can be adapted for your programs. If you’re not able to attend, you can follow the conversation on Twitter, using #SBCCSummit.
