Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) has been working over the past several years to institutionalize best practices in health communications across the Council and its institutes, to raise general awareness on public health issues. This program is a step further in this direction and aims to build indigenous expertise in health communications and integrate it as a core competency in the learning and professional training of health professionals and scientists.

The course has been developed in partnership with MICA, India’s premier communications and digital marketing institute, and Global Health Strategies.
