Public Health in Scotland Transcending Boundaries

Thursday 2 & Friday 3 November 2017 MacDonald Aviemore Resort
Humanity faces health challenges on a scale not previously encountered in the modern era and trans-disciplinary working will be increasingly required to develop resilient and sustainable solutions. Scotland is not impervious to the threats posed by global climate change, peak oil, air and water pollution, global economic crises, new and emerging diseases, artificial intelligence and automation, and rising inequalities and exclusion but new technologies, social communications and change offer opportunities to advance health.
Spanning boundaries is what good public health practice is about. People working in public health have always had to transcend boundaries to practice effectively. Our approach to this is becoming increasingly important and we need to be seen to be leading change.
Boundaries are a defining characteristic of the moment. Everywhere, boundaries are being radically challenged, debated and redrawn, for example the boundaries between: further economic progress and ecological crisis; the old politics and the new; nation states and the relationships between them; old health system organisations and new; geographical and organisational boundaries; diseases and their transmission, different disciplines and sectors; communications; definitions of healthy and unhealthy; governments and citizens; partnerships and relationships.
Boundaries can be helpful. They codify accountability, clarify rights and responsibilities, and help us to manage complexity. Boundaries can be real or imagined, divisive and inclusive, an obstacle or a strength for cooperation and cohesion.
This conference will offer delegates the space to reflect on the breadth of challenges we face, the opportunities we must maximise, the boundaries we must span and our collective strategies to transcend them.
At the conference sponsors will have the opportunity to engage with public health professionals currently working across Scotland and the UK and with professional public health leaders, from the Faculty of Public Health, Scottish NHS Health Boards and national public health organisations.

The faculty seeks financial and other kinds of support only for work we believe will further our programme and which reflect our concerns. We do not undertake activities at the behest of others simply because they may provide a source of funding.
The Faculty insists on the retention of complete editorial control over its work, and does not allow funders to decide the content either of publications or of conferences, seminars and other events. We will be happy to receive helpful suggestions, but the final editorial decisions always rest with us.
Benefits available to funding partners
The faculty is pleased:• To put partners’ names and logos, prominently but
not oversized, on publicity material and associated literature, along with that of the Faculty of Public Health.
• To put funding partners’ names and logos on backdrops for conferences and other events, along with that of the Faculty of Public Health
• To thank funding partners verbally at the event and on relevant literature
• To publicise funding partners’ activities in conference packs, etc
• To provide space for partners to have exhibition stands, where appropriate
• The Faculty does not provide platforms to speakers simply in return for financial support. However, we will allow funding partners to speak in some circumstances where this is appropriate to the content of the event.
Communications guidelinesIn order to ensure that both the Faculty of Public Health and the funding partner involved in any project receive greatest value of money, the Faculty adheres to a set of communication guidelines designed to promote best practice.
The Faculty of Public Health undertakes to meet if necessary with the funding partner on a set number of occasions during the course of the project, according to the scale of the project and funding involved. These meetings are designed to be opportunities for the Faculty of Public Health and the funding partner to report on progress and to raise ideas, issues or areas of concern.
In order to promote clear communications the Faculty of Public Health will supply the funding partner at the start of the relationship with a statement detailing the project timetable and the Faculty of Public Health personnel working on it.
Where the timetable changes we will undertake to inform the funding partner of this at the earliest possible opportunity, and to explain the reasons. (We would expect partners to understand that timetables do sometimes change for legitimate reasons, particularly in research and publication projects where outcomes and
findings cannot be known at the outset.) The statement aims to ensure that the funding partner is able to speak to an informed member of staff at all points during the working relationship, as well as making clear which member of Faculty of Public Health staff is responsible for which task.
The Events AgreementAlthough it is unlikely that we will have to change any part of the event, there may be unforeseen circumstances beyond our control which may force us to do this. In the occurrence of cancellation by a speaker we will do as much as possible to find a suitable replacement for any cancellation. However we cannot be held responsible under the terms of an agreement with a funding partner for the non-appearance of a speaker where this was clearly not under its control. The FPH also cannot take responsibility for the content or actions of any speaker at an event.
In the unlikely circumstances that an event is cancelled due to occurrences beyond the control of the Faculty of Public Health the funding partner would be expected to share responsibility for any non-recoverable outlay that the Faculty of Public Health has incurred.
The funding partner’s name and/or logo will appear on all publicity with a lead of one of the following: ‘In association with’; ‘supported by’; or ‘media partner’; the Faculty of Public Health cannot compromise its editorial control by allowing a funding partner to appear as a joint contributor in the organisation of any event.
