Health Literacy and Communication is an open-access, peer-reviewed journal that publishes original, interdisciplinary scholarship exploring the intersections of health, health care, and communication. The journal addresses empirical and theoretical health questions using the lens of multiple perspectives, experiences, and cultures with particular focus on health literacy. This journal will support the development of a space for the international research community to advance scholarship around the role of communication processes in global public health, policy, and literacy in a post-Covid era, where reported declines in health literacy have had unprecedented effects on society on a global scale, highlighting the importance of education and innovation in health communication.
Especially welcomed are interdisciplinary, international, and transnational articles that draw a connection between communication studies and health literacy as well as converging fields, such as, but not limited to:
- provider-patient/family communication
- shared decision-making
- m-health
- social marketing
- health promotion
- medical ethics
- health policy
- health and health communication education
- health literacy
- health communication and health care
- digital health
