The Drought and Public Health Roadmap is a strategy to improve drought preparedness and the understanding of how drought impacts human health. Developed by the National Integrated Drought Information System and the University of Nebraska Medical Center, the Roadmap can be a powerful aid in developing mitigation tools and improving health outcomes. This interactive presentation will discuss the roadmap and a messaging framework that healthcare providers can use to communicate about these topics. Attendees will participate in a drought scenario that will allow them to discuss and apply messaging maps.
