The World Federation of Public Health Associations’ 13th Triennial World Congress on Public Health will take place in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia from 21-29 April, 2012. The Congress will convene leaders in public health from across the globe to discuss the major issues and threats in realizing global health equity. Additionally, the Congress will harness innovations, expertise and experiences from both developing and developed countries. It will address the enormous challenges and opportunities facing public health organizations worldwide in making progress towards collectively attaining global health equity.
The International Planning Committee invites local, national and international public health leaders, specialists, and advocates to volunteer their time and expertise for the review of scientific abstracts. WFPHA needs reviewers for the following broad categories:

Please also indicate if you are willing to review additional abstracts in other categories, per the question on the online registration form.
After the abstract submission deadline closes (October 21, 2011), all reviewers will receive an email from wfpha@confex.com to access their assigned abstracts via an online link.
