If you wish to present some of your work, you can still use the ‘latebreakers’ abstract submission system http://www.festivalofpublichealth.co.uk/abstractsubmission/ The deadline for abstract submission is Friday 28th June 2019. The theme of this year's Festival is ‘The role of NGOs in reducing global inequalities’. Abstract submission does not have to be confined to this subject and there will be no weighting applied to this topic when abstracts are chosen.
Further details about the day and the exciting plenary speakers we have lined up will be announced over the next month, but if you have any questions in the meantime, please email much@manchester.ac.uk.
We would be delighted to have you join us for the Festival and look forward to seeing you in July.
