I’m excited to announce that I will be guest editing global @WePublicHealth Twitter feed 11-17 January.

While guest editing I plan to look at 4 themes, seeking input from Public Health colleagues around the world:

“something old, something new, someone followed, and a hint of #ScotPublicHealth”

Tweets on these four themes will be labelled with:

• #PublicHealthArchive (something old – expanding this Storify to look at public health progress across the world from the past 2 centuries)
• #PublicHealthNews (looking at Public Health stories from around the world). Let’s see if we, collectively, can produce a global #PublicHealth report for 2016, structured perhaps around the Faculty of Public Health‘s 9 areas of Public Health . I will gather the best tweets in a Storify. Here’s how I put it on Twitter last night (archive images from Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons Glasgow page on Henry Littlejohn’s Report of the Sanitary Condition of Edinburgh, 1865):

• #PublicHealthTag (like the playground game, in an attempt to network with Public Health colleagues across the world)
• #ScotPublicHealth (stories from public health in Scotland, or shared by the Scottish Public Health community)

Please share ideas using these hashtags, for inclusion throughout the week (11-17 Jan).
