"The ultimate aim of this initiative would be fulfilled if our efforts could inspire and guide someone into/in the field of public health and also keep them updated about recent public health happenings, thus bringing out passionate future public health leaders"
Dr Thamizhanban
Advisor & Coordinator,
Public Health Chronicle.
-
We are a team of young public health professionals from India, who have joined hands for shared common goals that aim to inspire and guide people into the various domains of public health policy, research and administration.
-
The Public Health Chronicle initiative is an impromptu attempt, especially aimed towards young public health professionals, to keep them updated about the daily news events and happenings across India and the world in the field of public health.
-
We also intend to kindle them through this initiative towards identifying the gaps and joining the dots (Law vs Enforcement, Guidelines vs Actual field practice) that help to better understand the lacune, thus exploring the unexplored and bringing transformative changes in the field.
-
The "Hear from the Masters" series from Team_PHC aims to inspire and motivate young minds, to guide them in their early career path through trailblazers in various fields of public health in India and the world.
-
The PH Chronicle also provides a platform through our "Public Health Coffee Table Magazine" to share "Good innovative public health practices and initiatives" and "Field experiences of public health professionals to the world" to inspire others.
