SUMMARY:2025 Preparedness Summit\, Pathways to Recovery in the Aftermath of Disasters
DESCRIPTION:Recovery is an important but often overlooked phase in the disaster life cycle that begins immediately after the threat to human life has subsided. We\, as a community\, must take time to be intentional about recovery to learn from our experiences and improve preparedness and response capacity into the future. This is particularly timely in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic and amidst the cascading challenges of environmental disasters.\n\nNow is our opportunity to ask questions and develop answers as we consider roles and responsibilities\, and resources needed to undertake the crucial step of recovery. What does recovery look like for individuals\, systems\, organizations\, and the community? How do we ensure equity in all aspects of recovery? How do we strengthen relationships across sectors to work together in recovery? How do we ensure our workforce is part of a recovery plan? How does recovery impact how we prepare for and respond to the next event?\n\nThe theme of the 2025 Preparedness Summit\, “Pathways to Recovery in the Aftermath of Disasters\,” will provide an opportunity to explore these and many other questions as we share experiences\, learn\, and collaborate across the public health\, emergency management\, and healthcare sectors. By taking the time to consider and incorporate into our work the many facets of recovery\, we can truly build resilience with our communities in the short- and long-term.

SUMMARY:Society for Public Health Education Annual Conference
DESCRIPTION:Historic winds and waves of change in political\, legal\, social\, and other structures are impacting the environment\, mental health\, violence\, and many other areas of society—threatening our goal of achieving the highest standard of health as a fundamental right of all people. A knowledgeable\, skilled health education workforce is needed to lead the public and private sectors in addressing social determinants of health\, social justice\, and health equity. Professional preparation and training programs also must ensure that health education specialists are equipped with the technological\, multi-media and communication skills to develop\, implement\, and evaluate effective program interventions to reach diverse multi-cultural populations. At this pivotal moment in SOPHE’s history\, we must build on the lessons learned from the pandemic and other public health crises to chart a new path for a healthier\, more equitable\, and vibrant future for all populations.

SUMMARY:American Public Health Association (APHA) Annual Meeting & Expo
DESCRIPTION:Public health is inherently future-focused\, looking toward prevention and promotion to enable populations to live longer\, healthier lives. But recent political polarization\, underfunding and distrust of scientific research threaten our ability to create optimal\, equitable health and well-being for all. The promise and effectiveness of public health is challenged by pseudoscience. Given this discord\, we need to rebuild trust in public health and science. \nRegistration and housing are open for the 2024 APHA Annual Meeting and Expo. Join us on Oct. 27-30 at the Minneapolis Convention Center.

SUMMARY:MEDTROP 59th Congress
DESCRIPTION:Since 1929\, the Brazilian Society of Tropical Medicine has promoted MEDTROP – a congress that has established itself as a national reference in the area\, bringing relevant\, hot and comprehensive topics\, with major national and international partnerships and collaborations. The congress advances and renews itself in this edition\, choosing as its motto “TROPICAL MEDICINE UNDER THE PERSPECTIVE OF ONE HEALTH”. \nOne Health is a multisectoral\, transdisciplinary\, integrated and unifying approach that aims to sustainably balance and optimize the health of people\, animals and ecosystems. The approach recognizes that the health of humans\, animals\, plants and the wider environment are  intimately linked and interdependent\, requiring a joint approach aimed at sustainable development. \nTropical Medicine has always considered the importance of other species\, but mainly as a source of infection\, reservoirs of microorganisms in the transmission chain\, as in the case of the origin of HIV\, Sars-Cov-2 and reservoirs of certain parasitic diseases. It is worth noting that\, in the last three decades\, 75% of emerging diseases are zoonoses. On the other hand\, it is important to consider the interconnection between human infection/disease and infection/disease of other species. A good example is infection by the bacterium Staphylococcus aureus\, with strains resistant to antimicrobials\, identified among the “priority pathogens” by the World Health Organization\, and considered the greatest threat to human health due to its high lethality. At the same time\, this bacterium affects cattle\, one of the reservoirs for transmission to humans. In this species\, it causes mastitis\, an inflammation of the mammary glands that is difficult to control\, compromising milk production and having considerable economic repercussions in the agricultural sector\, in addition to favoring the emergence of strains resistant to antimicrobials\, due to the often uncontrolled use of antibiotics in its treatment. This aspect is a warning about the issue of food safety. \nA well-known fact from the experience of doctors and health professionals\, resulting from the recent scenario in the area\, is that when dealing with originally infectious diseases\, the entire scientific-medical arsenal must be considered\, both from the point of view of medical specialties and technological resources.  \nWithin this vision\, we will have a comprehensive theme covering infections caused by viruses\, bacteria\, fungi\, parasites and other issues such as the health of travelers to endemic areas\, accidents caused by venomous animals\, etc. These will be focused on from a One Health perspective\, considering environmental issues and the participation of other animal species. The interface with veterinary science will come to the fore. Zoonoses closely related to human health and antimicrobial resistance due to uncontrolled use of antibiotics in other species will be highlighted. Translational research to support new therapeutic interventions will be discussed. Control strategies\, surveillance of emerging diseases\, prediction of future epidemics and pandemics\, development of new technologies\, new inputs\, and vaccine efficacy will also be widely discussed.  \nTo address such current and comprehensive topics\, which are attractive to a large number of participants\, we chose the Rebouças Convention Center\, which offers a modern and welcoming environment\, in a privileged location in São Paulo: linked to the HC-FMUSP complex\, a few steps from the Clínicas Metro station\, a few meters from bus stops\, with ample parking that also offers spaces for bicycles\, at the confluence of Avenidas Paulista\, Rebouças and Dr. Arnaldo.   \nThe expectation is to bring together more than 3\,000 participants from all states of Brazil and other countries. During the event\, diverse and differentiated activities are planned to enhance knowledge updating\, networking\, collaborations and medical-scientific development.
