Community Participatory Involvement: A Sustainable Model in Global Public Health
Linda M. Whiteford and Cecilia Vindrola-Padros
Dear colleagues,
We are proud to announce the publication of Community Participatory Involvement: A Sustainable Model in Global Public Health.
The book by Linda Whiteford and Cecilia Vindrola-Padros provides researchers, students, and practitioners with a brief introduction to a health-care model, Community Participatory Involvement (CPI), which for 20 years has proved successful in fighting global health problems. CPI differs from other community-based models in that it involves a unique synergy of local, civil, and political authorities. Using a South American cholera epidemic as an example, the book
* explains in step-by-step detail how the CPI model is used;
* includes teaching activities, a list of important tools, and model workshops;
* demonstrates how the CPI model can be replicated to deal with a diverse range of public concerns, from the control of infectious diseases to animal husbandry to teacher education
The book is available through Left Coast Press: http://www.lcoastpress.com/book.php?id=587
