Participants

- Could work as module in a longer educational or training workshop
- Works for a small audience (8-10) to a larger auditorium-style audience (30-50).

Planning
|
- Could be planned and facilitated by one person with support; however this workshop offers a good opportunity for collaboration to co-plan and co-facilitate (e.g. local/regional planning staff and public health staff).
- To lead the workshop the facilitator(s) require basic fluency and familiarity with the HBE Linkages Toolkit, and issues/opportunities around healthy communities.
