Public Health Reports Invites Manuscripts

Public Health Reports (PHR) invites manuscripts for a Special Supplement on Healthy People in a Healthy Environment. PHR will accept submissions based on original, not previously published, findings on programs, policies, measures, outcomes, and strategies that can be used to improve public environmental health science and practice. The journal is seeking manuscripts that include the following topics:

*Healthy Places: Research and programs related to healthy communities, schools, and housing; indoor and outdoor air quality; land reuse and revitalization; and the built environment.

*Sustainability and Public Health: Public health’s engagement with a variety of sustainability initiatives. These can include efforts to mitigate or adapt to climate change, green health-care, and energy initiatives, and other sustainability programs.

The editors encourage a broad range of manuscripts, especially those reporting on vulnerable populations and other groups disproportionately impacted by unhealthy environments or failed policies. Articles in PHR are typically 3,000–4,000 words in length. Longer manuscripts, when appropriate, will be considered. The anticipated publication date for the Special Supplement is spring of 2011.

Manuscripts should be sent electronically to manuscripts@publichealthreports.org or by mail to: Public Health Reports, 7774 Heatherglen Dr., Cincinnati, OH 45255.

Deadline: March 1, 2010

Information on the journal is available at the link below.  11/9/2009

"...although our efforts to increase green space and healthy food in neighborhoods will improve healthy options, improving the social inequity in our community will be necessary to improve our health."
