APHA Ethics Section Call for Abstracts
We invite submissions for individual paper presentations, posters, and coordinated panel discussions on topics concerning ethics and public health. You do not need to be a current member of the Ethics Section, or a professional in ethics, to submit an abstract. Accepted presenters must become APHA members prior to the Annual Meeting.
The Ethics Section encourages submissions from academic researchers, public health practitioners, and current students. Abstracts that are framed to fit with the 2022 theme (“150 Years of Creating the Healthiest Nation: Leading the Path Toward Equity”) are especially encouraged, but all submissions addressing public health ethics are welcome.
Themes include:
History of Public Health and Public Health Ethics
Justice and Equity
Sustaining Trainees and the Public Health Workforce
Health Policy: For Science, For Action, For Health
Using the Public Health Code of Ethics to Guide Ethical Decision-Making and Analysis in Research & Practice
Other Topics
In addition to the topics listed and described above, all submissions addressing public health ethics are welcome, and this category of Other Topics is designed to accommodate them.
Student Submissions
Submissions by students are especially encouraged. If you are a student or were first author on the submission while a student, please note this in the relevant domain of the abstract submission portal.
Further information is available in the online Ethics Section Call for Abstracts
The abstracts submission due date is April 30, 2022.
The conference will be held in Boston, MA Nov. 6-9, 2022
