At Hogwarts, young wizards study the subjects of Divination and Transfiguration with the goals of learning to gather insights of future events and transform everyday objects. Much like those in the Wizarding World, public health practitioners in the Muggle World must use data to predict future health outcomes and transform those results into actionable policy. In this session, Public Health Wizards will hear lessons learned from the successes and misses of transforming data into storytelling and policy for Muggles.
