Lessons from Social Movements: Workshop Summary (2014)
by Alison Mack, Alina Baciu, and Nirupa Goel, Rapporteurs;
Board on Population Health and Public Health Practice; Institute of Medicine
Summary of a workshop convened in December 2013 by the Institute of Medicine Roundtable on the Promotion of Health Equity and the Elimination of Health Disparities and the Roundtable on Population Health Improvement to explore the lessons that may be gleaned from social movements, both those that are health-related and those that are not primarily focused on health. Participants and presenters focused on elements identified from the history and sociology of social change movements and how such elements can be applied to present-day efforts nationally and across communities to improve the chances for long, healthy lives for all.
