The event calendar for 2026: 

The 5th PH3 Winter Conference – Public Health Austria, Germany, Switzerland will take place on January 15–16, 2027, in Ermatingen, Switzerland. ❄️🌍

The conference centers on the Public Health Index, a tool assessing the implementation of evidence-based structural measures to promote healthy lifestyles in the areas of tobacco, alcohol, nutrition, and physical activity. German-speaking countries ranked low in a European comparison, prompting a critical discussion of why and exploring potential solutions. 💡📊

Researchers, practitioners, and policymakers from diverse disciplines—including public health, social medicine, political and cultural sciences, and local governance—are invited to share insights, best-practice examples, and work-in-progress projects. The program encourages interdisciplinary dialogue on policy implementation, structural interventions, and the translation of research into practice. 🤝🏥

Abstract submissions are open until June 30, 2026, with selected presenters giving 8–10 minute talks. The conference offers a unique opportunity to compare cross-border Public Health practices, learn from each other, and co-develop strategies to strengthen health promotion in the DACH region. 📌✨
