APACPH 2024 POST-CONFERENCE WORKSHOP

WORKSHOP TITLE: WRITING A PUBLIC HEALTH PAPER AND JOURNAL MANAGEMENT

This workshop is organized by the Asia-Pacific Journal of Public Health (APJPH) in conjunction with the 55th Asia-Pacific Academic Consortium for Public Health (APACPH) Conference. This workshop aims to meet individual and institutional needs to enhance research and acquire comprehensive knowledge and skills to write and publish a quality scientific manuscript. There will be an emphasis on the common errors made in undertaking research and presenting it in a way that editors will accept your paper for publication.

Workshop includes:

  • Outline of an academic article.
  • Examples of common errors provided in a workbook.
  • Overview of running a public health journal.
  • Roles and responsibilities of journal editors.
  • Introduction to journal indexing, covering services like PubMed, Journal Citation Reports (Impact Factors), and Scopus (CiteScore).
  • Information on article metrics, such as downloads and citations, for published articles.
  • Discussion on publication ethics, including conflicts of interest, authorship issues, data fabrication, plagiarism, and other misconducts.

The target for the workshop is public health students, researchers, academic staff, journal editors, and reviewers who conduct research and need to develop successful scientific writing skills. Workshop notes and Certificates of Attendance will be given to all participants.
