Europe

You are invited to participate in a big discussion on how we can join forces and build a People's Health Movement (PHM) in Scotland mobilised around social, political and economic issues affecting health, with equity and justice at its heart. The current attack on these principles within the NHS and the welfare system in England and similar trends in Scotland have added urgency to mobilising around such a movement.

The International Society for Social Pediatrics and Child Health introduced PHM in their e-bulletin as the first of a series on international organisations whom they might work with in ISSOP.

Good morning

It is a real privilege to be able to address this Congress. And my sincere thanks to the organisers of this conference for inviting me to speak here.

We have organised a panel discussion with almost twenty representatives from five continents of the PHM with which INSEV has long been collaborating to build the Turkey Circle.
