Swiss TPH Symposium: Impactful Communication for Impactful Science

Swiss TPH Symposium is organizing a symposium on Impactful Communication for Impactful Science.

Date: 17 April 2026

Time: 12:15-17:40 CEST

Location: Virtual and at Swiss TPH, Kreuzstrasse 24123 Allschwil-Switzerland

The symposium offers a platform for exchange between public health scientists, communication experts, and policy makers in the spirit of mutual learning for impactful science communication. It pursues the following objectives:

  • Connect reflection and foresight: We will look back on key scientific contributions in public health while exploring how research can have a stronger impact on society, policy, and practice in the future.
  • Focus on impact rather than output: How public health research can move beyond publications to catalyse real-world change through new forms of collaboration, communication, and implementation, will take centre stage.
  • Reconsider scientific responsibility: Participants will be invited to think critically and creatively about the role of science and communication in driving societal transformation.
  • Inspire the next generation: Young researchers and students will be encouraged to see public health as a field that is not only analytical, but also deeply engaged in shaping societal change.
