Keynote speakers 2024

We are pleased to provisionally announce our keynote speakers will be:

Prof. Ruth Hunter (Queen’s University Belfast)
Prof. Liz Green (Public Health Wales/University of West of England/University of Liverpool)
Prof. Nisreen Alwan (University of Southampton)
Prof. Sir Michael Marmot (WITHDRAWN; UCL)

Professor Ruth Hunter

Professor Ruth Hunter is Professor of Public and Planetary Health at Queen’s University Belfast. She is a public health researcher with an interest in disease prevention, and methodological expertise in complexity and systems science. Her work primarily involves investigating how we can improve our urban environment for better population health including brain health. She is a member of the Public Health Research funding panel for the National Institute for Health Research, and the WHO expert panels on urban green space interventions, Non Communicable Disease prevention, Health and the Sustainable Development Goals and other aspects of urban environment and health, and an executive board member for the WHO Belfast Healthy Cities and Connswater Community Greenway.

Prof. Hunter is also Director of the WHO Collaborating Centre for research and training on complex systems and network science for Noncommunicable Disease (NCD) prevention and control. Her current research projects include the ESRC-funded Supportive environments for physical and social activity, healthy ageing, and cognitive health (SPACE) project. This project investigates the impacts and possible mechanistic pathways of urban environments on healthy ageing and cognitive health, through the novel integration of multi-omics, lifestyle behaviour and environmental exposures from urban environments. This will ensure that we create healthy active places that are supportive, attractive and accessible to people as they age.

More information about Prof. Hunter’s current and past work is available at Queen’s University Belfast profile page.

Professor Liz Green

Professor Liz Green is Consultant in Public Health, Policy and International Health/Programme Director for Health Impact Assessment at the WHO Collaborating Centre on ‘Investment for Health and Well-being’, Policy and International Health Directorate, Public Health Wales . Prof. Green is an international expert on health impact assessments, as well as integrating health and well-being into ‘non health’ sectors such as land use planning to drive ‘health in all policies’ approaches. This includes a clear focus on mobilizing cross-sector collaboration and addressing inequalities as part of policies and plans. Prof. Green is also Visiting Professor in Spatial Planning and Health at the World Health Organization Collaborating Centre (WHO CC) for ‘Healthy Urban Environments’, University of the West of England (UWE), Bristol.

Prof. Green is the lead author for ‘The Public Health Implications of Brexit: A Health Impact Assessment (HIA) approach’ published by Public Health Wales in 2019. The report considered the implications of Brexit across a wide range of health determinants and the future impact of trade and trade agreements.
