European Public Health News.

In this European public health news, the focus is on the next generation of public health professionals. Nagyova et al. highlight the successes of EUPHA, including attention to the younger generation and including the next generation in our governance structure. Barrios Aparicio et al. from the regional office for Europe of WHO embrace youth by highlighting WHO’s commitment to having the next generation involved in decision-making. Finally, Barnhoorn presents the efforts of greening this year’s EPH Conference, as requested by the younger generation.

It is clear that we need to make sure that the younger (future) generation of public health professionals is (critically) involved in what we do and in what we need to do to make our future healthier.
