The International Conference on Health, Wellness & Society is hosted each year with a leading institution. Recent hosts include Sorbonne Université (France), the University of the Witwatersrand (South Africa), Malmö University (Sweden), and the University of Granada (Spain). Each edition explores a Special Focus that responds to urgent questions in public health, wellbeing, and social equity.
The International Journal of Health, Wellness, and Society is a peer-reviewed, Hybrid Open Access journal that advances interdisciplinary research at the intersections of physiology and psychology, public health policies and practices, interdisciplinary health sciences, and health promotion and education—linking evidence, equity, and lived experience. Articles undergo double-anonymous peer review with a structured rubric and constructive editorial feedback.
The Health, Wellness & Society Book Imprint supports monographs and edited volumes that translate research into frameworks for clinicians, educators, community leaders, and policymakers.
The Network extends through CGScholar, a digital ecosystem supporting member engagement. Scholars and practitioners share profiles, papers, and projects year-round—connecting conference presentations, journal and book publications, in one integrated research environment.
The Network is co-chaired by Professor Louise Dalingwater, Professor of British Politics, Sorbonne Université, Paris, France (English-language Chair), and Dra. Angélica Avendaño Veloso, Profesora Titular, Facultad de Medicina, Universidad de Concepción, Chile; Ex-Presidenta, Red Iberoamericana de Salud Digital (Spanish-language Chair). Their leadership reflects the Network’s commitment to inclusive, bilingual, and cross-cultural scholarship.
