2. Do you think that communication
can change the face of public health system?
Ans.: I think that communication can change the face of
public health system.
Communication is a dynamic
process in which sources and receivers of information continuously interchange
their roles. One of the central tenets of health communication interventions –
the need to conduct extensive formative evaluation, audience needs assessment
and message pretesting – is the direct offshoot of this understanding.
