'Changing Geographies of Public Health'
XIIth International Medical Geography Symposium (IMGS)
Bonn, Germany, 09. - 13.07.2007
Dear colleagues,
on the occasion of the XIIth
International Medical Geography Symposium (IMGS) we would like to
invite you to Bonn, Germany. The scientific programme is entitled:
Changing Geographies of Public Health
The
world’s nature and societies are developing continuously. Changes
include the alteration of physical, social and mental environments, of
demography and economy, of policies, persuasions and faiths. All of
these changes can intensively impact individual health, health
behaviour, health care systems and, from a holistic perspective, the
public health of societies.
We would like to encourage
your participation in this symposium so that we may collaboratively
explore and analyse the geographical patterns and perspectives of
change and continuity for human health under the unsettled conditions
of the world in the 21st century.
