| APHN is a student/faculty run association established in May 1991 at the Johns Hopkins School of Public Health (JHSPH). Members include students, health professionals or not who had either worked in Africa or were interested in African public health matters. Our mission is to create a "forum" for exchange of ideas, information, experiences as well as training and research collaboration related to public health issues of special concern to Africa. There was recognition of the absence of suitable fora and platforms from which to voice and raise concerns about the resolution of public health problems and their socio-economic dimensions in Africa. Furthermore, the members also realized the need to establish a professional and social network between African public health professionals who leave their countries to study or work abroad in order to make their services once again available to their fellow citizens. As part of this social and professional networking, the APHN Executive will be providing links to job opportunities in Africa as a region and others that are Africa-related even if not in Africa.
