Collaborations
We believe strongly that engaging and collaborating with key stakeholders will help to ensure that our research is responsive to evolving needs and leads to real-world change.
Cambridge Public Health is strengthened by our longstanding relationships with practitioners and policy makers at local, regional and national levels including with local authorities, the NHS and government departments.
Representatives from these organisations are on our steering committee, contributing to the Centre’s strategy and activities.
