Every capitalist epoch has its own characteristics of struggles for health, social justice, and access to health care. The beginning of the decade has been over-shadowed by increased and exaggerated inequities and inequalities of peoples’ health and access to healthcare worldwide.
The COVID-19 pandemic deepened the class divide of access to health, healthcare, and vaccines all over the world. The pandemic is only one example of a global public health crisis within a planetary health emergency, driven by a cynical economic system that prioritises profit-making at the expenses of planetary needs.
Ongoing conflicts and wars over resources are triggering nationalism and forced migration in an increasingly unstable climate, and will continue to shape the political economy of health worldwide.
As humanity has become the major force in Earth System change, it is crucial to understand the relations between all these human actions and the planet’s responses, to prepare public health and health care systems for future threats.
Within the above context, the 19th IAHPE conference will focus on looking forward to preparing for future public health challenges, addressing the following themes, but not exclusively:
• Health care inequities and the struggle for health.
• Planetary health, climate change and health.
• War and conflict and health.
• Migration, forced migration and public health.
• Universal health care and health services’ privatization.
• Access and distribution of vaccines and pharmaceuticals.
• Academic freedom and commodification of public health education.
• Lessons from the COVID-19 pandemic and public health preparedness.
• Challenges and opportunities for public health.
• Social movements, solidarity, and public health activism.
We welcome any submission falling in one or more of the above themes.
