Abstract:

This Element offers a critical exploration of institutional health
communication in an era marked by information overload and uneven
content quality. It examines how health institutions can navigate the
challenges of false, misleading, and poor-quality health information
while preserving public trust and scientific integrity. Drawing from
disciplines such as health communication, behavioral science, media
studies, and rhetoric, this Element promotes participatory models,
transparent messaging, and critical health literacy. Through a series
of thematic sections and practical examples, it addresses the role of
science, politics, media, and digital influencers in shaping public
understanding. Designed as both a conceptual guide and a strategic
toolkit, this Element aims to support institutions in fostering
informed, engaged, and resilient communities through communication
that is clear, ethical, and responsive to the complexities of today's
health discourse. This title is also available as Open Access on
Cambridge Core.
