The 6th International Conference on Salutogenesis is co-sponsored by the International Union for Health Promotion and Education (IUHPE) and its Global Working Group on Salutogenesis. This Working Group aims to advance and promote the science of salutogenesis and thus to contribute to the scientific base of health promotion and of the IUHPE. For over 65 years, IUHPE makes evidence-based health promotion knowledge and practical experience broadly accessible, notably by organising world and regional conferences, and by publishing a high-quality scientific journal. We encourage all STARS members to become a part of the global health promotion community and joining IUHPE!

The ETC Summer Course in 2020 will provide high level training focused on people-centred approach in health promotion activities implemented in different settings and communities. Lodz as one of the biggest cities in Poland is a perfect place to show how health activities and strategies have been evaluated during past decades in the east part of Europe. The overall aim of Lodz residential Summer School is to develop an international and multidisciplinary forum for the exchange of knowledge and skills, with opportunity to explore:principals and implementation of people-centered approach in health including different settings and communities; good practice in health promotion based on the person-centred approach role of Salutogenesis in empowering people; health policy from different international and intercultural perspectives; Innovation in health promotion.

The conference aims to advance theory and research on Salutogenesis and to share and discuss innovative approaches in the four topic areas. ​

Following five successful International Research Seminars on Salutogenesis (Helsinki 2008 & 2009, Geneva 2010, Tröllhattan 2011 & 2012), the International Union for Health Promotion and Education (IUHPE), its Global Working Group on Salutogenesis , the Society for Theory and Research on Salutogenesis (STARS), and the Center of Salutogenesis (CoS) of the University of Zurich (UZH) are pleased to invite you to participate in the Sixth International Conference on Salutogenesis.

The Global Working Group on Salutogenesis will be present with a symposium on Sep 25th.
