Solution Room

40 minutes (5-10 minutes presentation, 30-35 minutes exploration)

Solution rooms are interactive sessions designed to generate collaborative discussion and build professional networks. Your Solution Room topic should facilitate exploration of a relevant public health education challenge with practical and transferable solutions, allowing participants to learn from your experience and consider its application to their own context.

As a Solution Room presenter you are expected to:

• Present your problem and solution (5-10 mins)
  • Briefly describe a real-world public health education challenge you have faced and its relevance to the community of practice.
  • Demonstrate what you did to address this challenge, and how you arrived at your solution.
• Facilitate, respectful, reciprocal and inclusive discussion (30-35 mins)
  • Deliver a practical activity which will help equip others to translate and apply your solution to their own practice
  • Outline key learning outcomes and a clear take-away message

Solution Room Abstracts will be selected on the basis of the assessment rubric:

1. Alignment to the Forum theme and streams
2. Quality, novelty and innovation of the solution (SoTL)
3. Relevance and transferability of the solution to the wider community of practice
4. Clarity and quality of the teaching activities and relevance to the solution.
