Public Health 2020 is the national conference where public health professionals, researchers, policy-makers, academics, students and trainees come together to strengthen efforts to improve health and well-being, to share the latest research and information, to promote best practices and to advocate for public health issues and policies grounded in research.

Public health is constantly evolving and is directly impacted by our ever-expanding knowledge of the world in which we live and by the political climate of time and place.

This means that everyone who works in population and public health needs access to cutting-edge research, up-to-date knowledge on what programs and policies demonstrate positive results, and access to diverse networks to help them do the best work possible. Public Health 2020 – Canada’s largest public health knowledge exchange event – will provide delegates access to all of this, and more.
