The ongoing ASPHER website update serves two purposes:

designing new brand
rebranding icon

Rebranding

The first is part of the corporate rebranding of ASPHER to bring a fresh look to the face of the Association. This includes the new modernised ASPHER logo, adopted at the ASPHER General Assembly in June of 2024. It echoes the past logo, keeping the graphical element of public health academics working with hearts and minds to improve the population’s health.

Online community

The second is to create a member driven ASPHER online community where individual users affiliated with ASPHER member schools (heads of schools, faculty, students and alumni) will be able to interact with each other, network and share their work, join and participate in ASPHER groups, and so much more – expanding together to unlock the ASPHER Community’s full potential!
