The Global Network convenes leaders from around the world to share, learn, collaborate, and act to advance academic public health. It addresses issues of global concern related to academic public health and provides a venue to strengthen relationships among Network members. Specifically, the Global Network seeks to enrich the conversation and action of its members through multicultural, multinational, and multilateral engagements and partnerships.
The Global Network for Academic Public Health has released this statement on the WHO’s response to COVID-19, with support of the founding associations of the Global Network: Asia-Pacific Academic Consortium for Public Health (APACPH), Association of Schools of Public Health in Africa (ASPHA), Association of Schools of Public Health in the European Region (ASPHER), and ASPPH.
Now, more than ever, it is important to stand together in solidarity globally as an academic public health community to support WHO as “we call on governments to commit to a new era of openness, information sharing and mutual support, to combat the COVID-19 pandemic, and future threats to the health of the world.”
An online communication and collaboration platform open only to Global Network members provides a secure venue for academic public health leaders to network, share information, and discuss ideas of mutual interest.

To let you know where public health is at the moment, every day, I get faxes of hand-written forms which are entirely illegible.
Our pandemic response is still, in a very large part, running on and heavily dependent upon the fax machine.
