Within a foreseeable future, European populations will continue to face substantial health challenges threatening the quality of life, the life expectancy, the social life, and the economic growth of society. The relevant answer is Public Health intervention based on scientific methods - planned, carried out and evaluated in systems managed by Public Health professionals.

The ASPHER Annual Conference 2007 investigates the interaction between challenges, PH interventions to meet them and - of course - professional training.

Our learned colleagues of Valencia have organised a cornucopia of presentations, workshops and discussions. Welcome!
