Using GIS Maps to Advocate for Healthier Communities

In this webinar recording, IPS’ Meredith Gibson demonstrates how geographic information systems (GIS) can reveal relationships between geography and health (in)equity, and how community members can use their maps to advocate for policy changes that promote community health and wellness. Meredith shares examples of current and historical maps that have had long-lasting consequences on policies and practical applications of data in maps to inform decision-makers on health and social equity matters.

This recording is ideal for community members and coalitions interested in using geospatial data to form the basis of policy advocacy campaigns.
