Short Film Projects Prepared for the First Time by Interns of the Department of Public Health

 

Within the scope of science communication activities carried out in coordination between the Süleyman Demirel University Science Communication Office and the Faculty of Medicine, short film projects were prepared by our Public Health interns to raise public awareness about preventive health services and support the health literacy of the public.
As part of the event, short films were prepared on the topics of Vaccine Hesitancy, Maternal and Child Health, E-Cigarette Addiction, Alcohol and Substance Addiction, Technology and Gambling Addiction, Occupational Safety and Occupational Diseases, and Cancer Screenings, aiming to convey current public health messages for protecting and improving community health in an effective and understandable manner.
The prepared short films were watched and evaluated on August 6, 2026 in an interactive session held with the participation of teaching staff of the Department of Public Health and our interns. Throughout the session, which aimed to develop the skills of communicating effectively with the public, planning health education, and conveying scientific knowledge for the benefit of the community, our students had the opportunity to receive academic feedback on their work.
At the end of the event, certificates of appreciation were presented to our interns who successfully completed the short film projects. We thank the faculty members and students who contributed to the event.
