Health and the city? Be-cause health 2019 conference to focus on urban health

18/6/2019

 
Our world is ‘urbanising’ rapidly: two out of every three people are likely to be living in cities or other urban areas by 2050.  Cities are often unhealthy places to live, but they also offer opportunities for social change, innovation and inter-sectoral solutions, including health and sexual and reproductive health and rights.

The Be-cause health international conference on Urban health on 15-16 October 2019 in Brussels will address the following questions: How can we achieve universal access to health in cities? What is the best way to organise health services and the health system in urban settings? How does urban life affect the health of urban populations? Save the date and preliminary programme.
CALL FOR STORIES AND ABSTRACTS
Individuals are invited to submit short stories or scientific abstracts on recent (research) findings.

The deadline to submit is 30 June, 5 p.m. CET.  Each story or abstract has to be submitted separately via the conference submission form and be linked to one of the 6 tracks. You can find all information regarding the call here.

The Be-cause health Working Group on SRHR, of which Sensoa takes the lead, encourages submission of research and/or work experiences on SRHR challenges and opportunities in an urban context in all tracks, and will be taking the lead in track 1 on health service delivery in cities. An organising committee within Be-cause health will review and select stories and abstracts that will be included in the various conference sessions.
