Cultural understandings of communication

In Addis Ababa at the Summit I had the pleasure of atttending the (packed) workshop on different cultural approaches to health communication - the presentations from which have been summarised those on The CI platform, as part of an effort, working with JHU, to summarise all Summit presentations, with links to the full presentation:  The three presentations at that workshop were African perspectives; Asian perspectives; and, "Western" perspectives. Derived from either your attendance at that workshop or your review of those summaries and presentations at the links just provided, I would be very interested to hear your views and analysis of these presentations. What resonated? What was more difficult to understand? What are the implications for the design of health communication strategies and programmes? You can either comment in the context of those summaries or click below and comment in this community. Many thanks. These are imprtant issues. We will all benefit from your contributions - Warren
