Manage episode 338428361 series 3375699
We might not think of it as a health policy, but did you know that bike lanes were part of a health promotion initiative? This is an example of a seemingly ordinary program affecting people’s everyday lives that actually had to go through the tedious policy development cycle. That means a lot of research, planning, and evaluation, with lots of different organizations working together to achieve a single health goal. Listen to our guest, Rodley M. Carza, OIC-Chief of the Policy, Planning, Standards, and Research Division of the Health Promotion Bureau, as he walks us through the policy process. A nurse turned into a full time public health practitioner, Rodley specializes in health policy development and health policy and systems research.
