SUMMARY:The Collective Cure: Upstream Solutions for Better Public Health
DESCRIPTION:Join the Museum of Science for a compelling conversation with Dr. Monica Wang\, award-winning public health researcher\, and educator celebrating the release of her new book\, The Collective Cure (Beacon Press)\, exploring how the spaces where we live\, work\, learn\, and connect shape our health long before we enter a clinic. \nDrawing from the powerful\, story-driven narrative at the heart of her book\, Dr. Wang illuminates the social and structural forces that influence well-being\, from income and neighborhood conditions to social connection and belonging. Through the lived experiences of three extraordinary women across the United States\, and through her own journey growing up as an Asian American bussing student and working mother\, she reveals how upstream factors create downstream health outcomes- and what we can do about it. \nIn conversation with Indira Lakshmanan\, award-winning journalist and editorial leader\, Dr. Wang will go beyond the pages of The Collective Cure (Beacon Press) to discuss actionable\, community-centered strategies for building healthier futures. With clarity\, urgency\, and optimism\, she will invite us to reimagine what becomes possible when we shift our focus from individual fixes to collective solutions. \nThis conversation is for anyone interested in what helps individuals and communities thrive\, build resilience\, and navigate the systems that shape our lives. Discover how evidence-based\, upstream approaches can transform public health- and how each of us can play a part in creating healthier communities from the ground up. \nFollowed by book signing. Copies of The Collective Cure (Beacon Press) for sale on-site.
