Bt-based public health interventions represent a significant advancement in disease control and vector management, leveraging the biological insecticidal properties of Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt). This study aims to analyze the risk communication strategies employed in Bt-based public health initiatives. We explore the principles and mechanisms of Bt interventions and set forth the objectives of this study to enhance public understanding and acceptance. Theoretical frameworks underpinning risk communication are discussed, encompassing key concepts, models, and ethical considerations. We detail strategies for identifying target audiences, crafting effective messages, and addressing public misconceptions. Through case studies of successful Bt interventions, we identify best practices and common challenges in risk communication. The review evaluates the effectiveness of these strategies using various metrics and emphasizes the need for continuous feedback and improvement. Finally, we discuss the implications for integrating risk communication into public health planning, offer policy recommendations, and propose future research directions. Effective risk communication is crucial for the success of Bt-based interventions, ensuring public trust and cooperation, ultimately contributing to improved public health outcomes.
