Injury & Violence Prevention Grand Rounds are a series of panels that aim to support our goal of bringing together science, practice, and policy using an antiracism and health equity framework. Co-hosted by SAVIR and Safe States Alliance, these sessions are open to all and supported by funding from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The Grand Rounds series:
- Fosters improved cohesion and connections among participants of the injury and violence prevention research community with practitioners and policymakers.
- Focuses the attention of the public health community on important injury and public health issues that affect our community, and
- Strengthens capacities to promote and protect health by sharing knowledge about important public health problems and promising opportunities and efforts to address those problems in our area.
The goals of the Grand Rounds series are to:
- Promote collective, educational and scholarly activity among its participants in developing the field of injury prevention and control research, policy and program development, teaching, and other activities that synthesize expertise from multiple disciplines, in creating a body of expertise that is greater than the sum of contributions from individual scholars or centers.
- Provide a resource to other researchers, practitioners and decision-makers in accessing expertise in the development of research, program and policy activities.
- Share knowledge in injury and violence prevention across stakeholders.
Upcoming Grand Rounds are available on the Calendar of Events.
Grand Rounds are recorded and available on demand in the Safe States Training Center. To access a past session recording, visit the Training Center and search for “Grand Rounds.”
