The 2021 ASPHER Young Researchers’ Forum (YRF) took place online on Friday, October 8th as part of the 30th Anniversary of the Krakow School of Public Health – Jagiellonian University Medical College. It is the first edition of the YRF to be offered via an ASPHER member event. We would like to sustain this format of the YRF as a regular offer to ASPHER members – strengthening ASPHER’s presence in its member locations and within their local agendas.
This new format for the YRF provides added value for all actors involved. The Forum has always represented a unique opportunity for young researchers to present their work to a select audience of peers and key representatives of the European public health community. Extending the opportunity for Members to host YRF sessions allows them to internationalize their key events by calling for submissions across the ASPHER network. Supplementary YRF sessions permit ASPHER and its wider membership to energize the next generation agenda. Presenters are provided the chance to learn about the local context of the host schools, with relevant networking and extra impact opportunities.
