Exciting Developments at APHEA – A New Chapter for Public Health Education Accreditation

APHEA, the Agency for Public Health Education Accreditation, is proud to announce significant leadership changes that mark the beginning of an exciting new chapter in our mission to promote and facilitate high-quality, socially accountable, and ethical public health education worldwide.

We welcome a new Management Board and Board of Accreditation, as well as Dr. Danko Relic, our newly appointed Executive Director. These leadership changes bring a wealth of expertise and global representation from key organizations such as ASPHER, IANPHI, WFPHA, EUPHA, and accredited schools across Europe and beyond. Under their guidance, APHEA is poised to strengthen its role as a leader in public health education accreditation.

The new Management Board, led by President Carlo Signorelli, has initiated strategic discussions to raise APHEA’s profile, expand partnerships, and enhance our services. These efforts are aimed at ensuring that APHEA continues to meet the evolving needs of the global public health education community.

With Professor Paul Barach as Chair of the Board of Accreditation, our agency is focused on updating and improving our accreditation processes, along with developing innovative new learning activities to support public health institutions and workforces globally.

We are excited to share updates about this new era in APHEA’s development and the opportunities it brings to collaborate with our partners and accredited institutions as we build a stronger, more innovative future for public health education.

Stay tuned as we unveil new developments and services in the upcoming year!

Together, we are shaping the future of global public health education.

APHEA is the leading global accreditation agency for public health schools, programmes and training courses.

We are present in all six W.H.O. regions throughout the world; our management, decision-making boards and reviewers reflect this global diversity. APHEA pursues a formative, inclusive, non-prescriptive approach to accreditation with an emphasis on continuous improvement and the development of a global community of practice.
