Poster: Strengthening the Intersectoral Health Promotion Action: Building Healthy Communities | Save the Date! Annual Health Promotion Conference, Thursday 22nd June 2023, Áras Moyola, University of Galway

This year’s conference will be held in Áras Moyola, on the University of Galway campus.  This event is hosted in collaboration with the Department of Health, Health Service Executive, and the Association for Health Promotion Ireland. 

It will provide a platform to highlight cutting-edge research and innovative initiatives as well as to expand links between knowledge and action, and to broaden connections among a diversity of researchers, policymakers, and practitioners.  Delegates will hear from international and national experts and will have the opportunity to network with colleagues working in research, policy, and practice.

We look forward to welcoming researchers, practitioners, and policymakers from around the world that are engaged in this work.
