Event Details
TAMPA: MONDAY, AUGUST 27
CHARLOTTE: WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 5
Our nation is in the midst of a public health crisis so profound that it is undermining America’s economic competitiveness and national well-being, according to a recent Bipartisan Policy Center report on the issue. Fully two-thirds of Americans are overweight or obese. One-third of American children are overweight or obese, the report concludes.
Join National Journal and The Atlantic as we explore how investment in community health can be optimized through partnerships between the public and private sector, spotlighting innovative care delivery models that can improve health outcomes for all citizens. Through panel discussions we will highlight specific and anecdotal examples of effective collaborative strategies for healthier communities. #HealthierCities

National Journal & The Atlantic at 2012 Conventions
.png)
The 2012 Democratic and Republican Conventions provide a rare opportunity both to connect with the country’s leadership ranks and to participate in one of the nation’s most cherished traditions. These spirited gatherings are equal parts policy, politics, and celebration and attract the power centers of each party, including state, local, and federal officials, senior party leadership, national media, and business leaders.
National Journal and The Atlantic will combine their brand strengths at the 2012 conventions for special on-site events in Tampa, Florida, and Charlotte, North Carolina. From breaking news and probing analysis of Washington policy and politics to thoughtful reconnaissance on the big ideas shaping the national conversation, National Journal and The Atlantic will provide a panoramic perspective on the world of American policy and politics during this pivotal election year.
