7th to 9th August 2025, Bangkok, Thailand.
The global landscape of public health is changing rapidly and the need for resilient, equitable, and innovative health systems has never been more urgent. ICOPH 2025 (The 11th International Conference on Public Health) is set to take place under the compelling theme:
“Redefining Public Health: Harnessing Innovation, Collaboration, and Equity for Resilient Public Health Systems.”
This year’s conference is more than just a gathering, it’s a global platform for action. From visionary keynote speakers to groundbreaking research presentations, ICOPH 2025 invites health professionals, researchers, policymakers, and innovators to explore fresh strategies for transforming public health through technology, cross-sector partnerships, and inclusive policymaking.
Why ICOPH 2025 Matters
In an age marked by pandemics, climate-related health threats, and widening healthcare disparities, the concept of resilience is taking center stage. A truly resilient public health system must do more than respond to emergencies; it must proactively promote equity, harness innovation, and strengthen the infrastructure needed to meet future challenges.
ICOPH 2025 aims to tackle these pressing issues head-on, fostering global collaboration and sharing cutting-edge solutions aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). From digital health technologies to inclusive policy development, the conference will explore bold ideas capable of reshaping public health around the world.
