Description:

Building on the partner and community engagement concepts introduced in Session 1, this hands-on session focuses on turning what you know about your partners into a visual map. Participants will explore how mapping relationships can reveal connections, gaps, and new insights that strengthen community health assessment efforts. Through guided application, participants will begin using the approach with their own project or community assessment work.
