Public Health Intervention Design
10 weeks · 0 milestones
Design a real public health intervention for a specific population and health problem. Proof requires a proposal covering: problem statement with epidemiological evidence (cited), target population with demographic specificity, intervention logic model (inputs → activities → outputs → outcomes), implementation plan with timeline, evaluation framework with measurable indicators, and budget rationale. Must be for a real community or population — not a hypothetical scenario. Reviewed by a public health practitioner with experience in intervention design or programme management.

Choose a public health problem in a specific population (e.g. low physical activity in adults aged 40–65 in urban GP-registered patients, or high smoking prevalence among 16–24 year olds in a specific borough). Document the epidemiological justification for choosing this population and problem: prevalence data, burden of disease, known risk factors, social determinants, and health inequalities relevant to this group. Your documentation must cite published data (PHE, WHO, NHS, or peer-reviewed sources).
Proof required
Submit your 2-page population and problem definition with all prevalence figures, burden of disease estimates, and health inequalities data cited to published sources.
What gets checked
- Population is specific and bounded — a named demographic, geographic area, or clinical cohort, not 'the general population'.
- Prevalence data is cited to published sources with year — not estimated or derived without reference.
- Health inequalities section identifies a specific disparity relevant to your chosen population — not a generic statement about health inequalities.
