Staffordshire University’s Centre for Health and Development (CHAD) and the Faculty of Public Health have collaborated on an annual health and inequalities conference since 2018. For this academic year we are hosting a series of short webinars on various aspects of COVID-19, related health impacts and inequalities.

We are delighted to invite you to the first in this this series:

COVID-19: What went right, what went wrong and how do we learn from this?

• Chair's Intro: Professor Maggie Rae, President FPH

• National Overview: Professor John Middleton, ASPHER President and Immediate Past President FPH

• Q&A

• Closing remarks.

Subsequent webinars will consider experiences and learning form COVID-19 in the context of housing and homelessness, deprivation, ethnicity, natural environment, the food system and diets, impact on women, education and children and young people. Details will be distributed in due course.

Details on how to join the sessions will be emailed in advance of the event to all those who register.
