The main conference will be organized from 13 – 15 November 2024, the pre-conferences will be held on 12 November.
Workshop and single abstract ideas for EPHC
Based on initial brainstorming and member suggestions, we would like to present following workshop topics we have collected so far and also would like to ask and endorse you to share further ideas for both individual/single abstracts and workshops:
- AI, health communication and digital health literacy (planned and chaired by prof dr Don Nutbeam, AUS)
- Health literacy as a social determinant of health (planned and chaired by prof dr Don Nutbeam, AUS)
- Critical health literacy (planned and chaired by prof dr Susie Sykes and dr Catherine Jenkins, UK)
- Health Literacy of children and adolescents (planned and chaired by prof dr Jany Rademakers, NL)
- Digital health literacy in schools (planned by WHO CC HL at TUM and HS Fulda, GER)
- WHO global HL assessment (planned by WHO CC HL at TUM and WHO Dept. Health Promotion, GER & CH)
- Organizational health literacy (planned by WHO CC HLat TUM and Steno Diabetes)
- Health literacy and information ecosystems (planned by WHO CC HL at TUM and Harvard School of Public Health, GER & US)
- Health literacy and mental health
- Health literacy and food policies & behaviour
- Environmental health literacy (planned by WHO CC HL at TUM and HS Fulda, GER)
All of these workshops will be organized in collaboration with other EUPHA sections and we are already in talks with the section presidents and vice-presidents. Some of these workshops will be science sessions (up to four/five presentations, like a research symposium) and some will be ‘real’ workshops (short presentation followed by actual working groups). For some of these workshops we already have presenters, others still need presenters (reach out to us).
We are also very happy to support your workshop and single abstract, just drop an email to Catherine Jenkins and myself.

Section pre-conference
Our section will also organize a pre-conference and we are already in talks with other sections to set up an initial idea. It is also crucial to learn what you think we could address at a potential pre-conference, and even have two pre-conferences. If you have any particular idea, we are more than happy to co-organize one with you. We will come back with more information soon and also discuss this item at our next Section meeting. Please check our February Newsletter about the date and meeting details.
