A local issue translated

I came across a brief, but fascinating online video clip that takes basic science information and translates it into a useful and meaningful form, showing how a medium-sized community in Eastern Ontario (Canada) can use science-based information to promote community health. What makes this video so effective is not only that it concerns the entire lifespan (focusing on early life), but also because it takes into account science-based information and provides a systematic approach.

To help communities it is essential that we understand what their needs are and understand this from the community perspective. Of course, there is much more to it than that. This video will tell you more about this important topic.
