Each year, The Global Network of Tobacco Free Healthcare Services is invited to co-organise the pre-conference to the Health Promoting Hospitals and Health services international conference. HPH's main annual event provides a platform for hospitals and health services to learn and exchange knowledge and experiences in health promotion. The annual HPH Conference usually attracts a wide range of professionals from health practitioners to consultants, scientists, and politicians.
The 2020 Tobacco Free Pre-Conference will be held June 3-5, 2020 in Seoul, Korea. More details to come.
