What to bring
- Print out of your return ticket. Without a printed copy of your return tocket you will NOT be allowed to enter South Africa by immigration at the airport.
- Adapters - South Africa has a three plug, Adapters can be purchased at the airport.
- Towels
- Umbrella and raincoat - it will be windy and rainy in Cape Town!
- Warm clothes
- extra blanket for at night
- Radio for translation - Simultaneous interpretation will be provided (ENG_FR_SPA) for most of the sessions. We will work with a radio transmitter who will send out the interpretation on a specific frequentie to be received by radio's of the participants. Therefore we urge all participants to bring a radio, earplugs and sufficient batteries. The radio need to have following requirements:
At PHA3 we will be relying on translation via technology that uses FM radios - please take note of this important notice. This is very important as we will have French, Spanish and English presentations at the Assembly.
- Please bring a battery powered FM radio receiver with headphones and batteries.
- A digital tuner is easiest to use, but an analogue can also be used.
- Make sure that the radio you bring can be tuned to a specific frequency and does not "auto scan".
- Many cell phones contain fm receivers but the battery life may not be adequate for a fullday of presentations and plenaries.
- Apple I-pods do not have fm radios, but some other mp3 players do.
For example the Mini Radio « Kchibo » KK-521, FM-AM, is a good radio to bring to PHA3.
- Water bottle - we will not be selling cool drinks - tap water is drinkable and therefore we urge participants to bring their own water bottle
- Towels
- Padlock with two keys - as per picture below, the residences of UWC work with a lock that requires a padlock. For those who will be sharing, it is important to bring two keys for the paslock (all sponsored participants will be sharing).
- Publications, posters of your organisation and banners
- Relevant videos, short films, documentaries
- Songs (folk, health-related, rights-related, etc.)

Announcements
Your chance to make PHA3 a grass roots event!
PHA3 is approaching! A large number of activists from around the globe have already registered.
However, there is a shortage in funding for grassroots activists and community based organizations to participate. We appeal for contributions no matter how small or large to support participation of people from the South in the PHA3!
Please donate now following this link http://www.phmovement.org/en/pha3/donate
The PHA3 logo was developed following an international logo contest amongst PHM activists. PHM would like to thank the South African PHM student Coalition for organising this logo design contest and would like to thank everybody who submitted ideas.
During the logo design contest people were asked to bring their ideas for a PHA3 logo based on PHM's vision statement.
Equity, ecologically‐sustainable development and peace are at the heart of our vision of a better world ‐ a world in which a healthy life for all is a reality; a world that respects, appreciates and celebrates all life and diversity; a world that enables the flowering of people's talents and abilities to enrich each other; a world in which people's voices guide the decisions that shape our lives.
Vision of PHM
The winning logo was used as inspiration for the designer to develop the final logo. Out of that flowed a logo standing for togetherness, Ubuntu, community and solidarity. It is about finding solutions together and sharing stories, experiences and ideas to achieve health for all. It is about linking local with global and stands for one world where everybody has the opportunity to live a decent and healthy life.
