About Public Health Network Cymru
What is the aim and objective of the network?
The aim of the Network is to inform, facilitate and create connections for those working in public, private and third sectors in order to improve population health and wellbeing in Wales.
This will be achieved by:
• Sharing knowledge from a diverse range of perspectives, including policy, research and practice to improve population health and wellbeing.
• Facilitating the development of solutions and approaches to inform policy, practice and research by bringing diverse perspectives together in creative spaces.
• Connecting members and building a community to advance the common goal of improving population health and wellbeing through action across society.
• Helping people from a range of sectors to recognise their current and potential contribution to population health and wellbeing.
How is the network governed?
A Network Advisory Group was established in 2016 to represent Network members with a remit to advise and support the Network to achieve its aims and objectives and to support Public Health Wales and its partners and stakeholders in the effective delivery of the ‘Wellbeing of Future Generations (Wales) Act 2015’ and other relevant policies and plans. The Advisory Group is chaired by Dr Ciáran Humphreys, Consultant in Public Health (Public Health Wales) and meets on a quarterly basis.
