Public Health Review Group
The Cochrane Health Promotion and Public Health Field is intending to register as a Public Health Review Group, potentially within the Cochrane and Campbell Collaboration. The aim is to review the effects of public health interventions, with a focus on upstream interventions. To take this forward, two meetings are being planned:

1. The first meeting will coincide with the Meeting of the Society for Social Medicine & the International Epidemiological Association (European Federation) on 13th September 2007, between 1pm and 5pm at University College, Cork, Ireland. A flyer and agenda for the meeting in Cork is available here.
2. The second meeting is planned to coincide with Forum 11 of the Global Forum for Health Research, on 29th October 2007, between 10am and 2pm at the Jiuhua Resort and Convention Center, in Beijing, China.

If you are unable to attend either of these meetings, and wish to make comment on the proposal for registration, please email Jodie Doyle.
