Public Health, Democracy and How to Operate in the New Era

February 13 @ 12:00 pm 1:00 pm

The new Trump administration has ushered in a new political landscape—one that will have profound implications for public health policy, research funding, and higher education. With a shift in leadership, congressional control, and new Cabinet nominees and members, what changes can we expect in federal health priorities?

Join us for an ASPPH Presents webinar, part of a series, on Thursday, February 13, 2025, from 12:00 PM ET to 1:00 PM ET, as we discuss the Trump administration’s key decisions and their implications for the future of public health. We’ll explore the administration’s early actions, shifts in funding strategies, and how the academic public health community can prepare for the road ahead.

Key Topics:

  • The impact of the election on healthcare policy, research funding, and regulatory changes.
  • Shifts in public health priorities, including chronic disease prevention, pandemic preparedness, and environmental health.
  • Higher education policy updates and what they mean for public health programs.
  • Strategies for public health professionals to engage in advocacy and policy discussions.

This session is essential for public health leaders, educators, and advocates looking to navigate the evolving policy landscape. Don’t miss this opportunity to gain expert insights and act in shaping the future of public health.
