Unsustainable living, climate change and disassociation from nature are beginning to take their toll and disastrous repercussions for human health and survival are anticipated by researchers across the globe. The transdisciplinary nature of ecohealth is an innovative way of addressing these issues.
Our plenary speakers will be supported by an expert multidisciplinary team of speakers and facilitators from throughout Australia and the Asia-Pacific region. Please refer to our speakers page for more information about them. The theme for the workshop will be ‘Ecology and Health: People and Places in a Changing World’.
The Asia Pacific EcoHealth Conference will showcase the latest research and contribute to the development of partnerships that will create opportunities for new strategies to address this looming crisis. Professionals from the social and biological sciences including health promotion, environmental health, sociology, urban planning, economics, conservation, environmental management and environmental policy will be able to share knowledge and ideas.
We look forward to seeing you there!
