The Cultural Ecology of Health and Change (CEHC) is a system of anthropology-based theoretical paradigms and research and technical assistance programs developed by Dr. Tony L. Whitehead, Professor Emeritus of the University of Maryland, College Park. CEHC paradigms and programs evolved over Dr. Whitehead’s 40 plus years career as an anthropologist involved in community based initiatives (CBIs) in the United States and abroad. The CEHC is a cultural, ecological and social change system that is informed by multiple theoretical approaches cutting across several disciplines: anthropology, health behavior and promotion, communications, social psychology, and so on.
