Fourth Public Health Annual Scientific Conference

The Public Health Agency and partners will be hosting the fourth Public Health Annual Scientific Conference on Wednesday 10 June 2015 at Riddel Hall, Stranmillis Road, Belfast.

The theme of the Conference will be 'Making Life Better – Improving health and care for adults'. It will focus on how public health innovations, research and practice are meeting the needs of our adult population between the ages of 18-64 years. The conference will focus on five of the themes within the new Public Health Strategy, Making Life Better which was launched in June 2014 by the Northern Ireland Executive. The five themes include:

  • Equipped throughout life;
  • Empowering healthy living;
  • Creating the conditions;
  • Empowering communities;
  • Developing collaboration.

Three Key Note Speakers will give presentations on their research and expertise on the social determinants of health and health equity.

The conference will include a morning parallel session and an afternoon parallel session where local researchers/practitioners will give 10 minute presentations each followed by a five minute discussion.
