Emerging infectious, rising rates of obesity and health problems related to

pollution have all raised the profile of public health and increased the need

for responsive health services. Health is an increasingly global concern as is

how we educate to promote and protect the populations' health. As part of the

10th anniversary of the CUHK School of Public Health and Primary Care (SPHPC),

an International Conference on Global Health and Public Health Education will

discuss these issues.

Speakers include international leading public health and primary care figures

from academic, government, private and NGO sectors who will contribute to a

platform for discussion and exchange on issues of relevance to the public's

health including environmental health and sustainability, health service reform,

climate change, infectious diseases, prevention and control, the healthy

universities initiative, public health education and strategies and humanitarian

response to disaster amongst other important themes. More conference details can
