  • Applied Health Economics for Public Health Practice and Research

    Building on 20 years of our experience in research and teaching health economics to public health practitioners and those undertaking research in public health, we offer this two-day free online short course showcasing our research portfolio at the Public Health and Prevention Economics Research Group (PHERG) at the Centre for Health Economics and Medicines Evaluation (CHEME). Through recorded presentations and live breakout rooms with you, the delegates, and our faculty of researchers at PHERG CHEME, we will be asking and discussing collaboratively:

    What additional challenges does applying methods of economic evaluation to public health and prevention initiatives within and outside of traditional health care systems pose and how can we address them?

    What methods are we, as health economists, using (diversifying our portfolio) to address these challenges and add to the evidence base of the relative cost-effectiveness and social value of public health and prevention interventions across sectors and across the life-course?

    How can such interventions be paid for in future and how do these methods relate to overarching policy approaches to sustainability and climate change?

    This short course accompanies the textbook: Edwards, R. T., & McIntosh, E. (Eds.). (2019). Applied health economics for public health practice and research. Oxford University Press.

  • The Value of Greenspace for Health and Well-being

    This workshop was an opportunity to consider the connection of public health and local greenspace, sharing insights, findings and perspectives. We explored needs,

    priorities, perceptions and preferences of stakeholders including Local Council officers and facilitators of community initiatives and discussed these alongside relevant academic expertise.

    Our guiding question for the day was:

    “What do people across various levels of experience think about managing greenspace on a local council level, through the lens of health and wellbeing?”
