Enlightenment, By Design
Replica Communications is a strategic research, knowledge mobilization and communications firm. Our work is rooted in the belief that the prevention and treatment of chronic diseases like obesity can be vastly improved by public- and private-sector organizations that adopt a people-first and data-driven approach.
Our principals have deep experience working in research, health policy, nonprofit and healthcare management, patient engagement, professional affairs and education, IT services, and communications. Together, they have helped change the global narrative around obesity to incorporate de-stigmatized, people-centric and evidence-informed approaches to health policies, research programs, clinical practice guidelines, workplace strategies, public health campaigns, and marketing and communications.
