About

The Public Health Association (PHAA) is Australia’s peak body for public health. 

PHAA’s Intouch Public Health blog is a unique platform for the Association and its members to promote research and advocacy work, inform public debate, share expert opinion, and communicate to the general public. The views expressed in Intouch Public Health do not necessarily represent the views of PHAA. We regret we cannot publish all articles submitted, so must assess them based on suitability and other scheduled articles.

All posts are free to read, and we encourage the republishing of our stories. Please link articles to PHAA Intouch Public Health, using the words “First published in PHAA Intouch Public Health (hyperlink to the story).”

PHAA is led by CEO, Terry Slevin. The blog is edited by the PHAA team.
