Summary:Public health is a dynamic and multifaceted field that encompasses efforts to promote and protect the health of entire populations, from local communities to global society [1]. Globalization, urbanization, and climate change have contributed to the emergence of new health threats, including infectious diseases, non-communicable diseases, and environmental health hazards. [...]socio-economic disparities, inadequate access to healthcare, and persistent inequities in social determinants of health continue to undermine efforts to achieve health equity and improve health outcomes for all individuals [7]. From the use of digital health technologies to track and monitor disease outbreaks to the implementation of community-based interventions to address social determinants of health, these strategies leverage the latest advancements in science, technology, and policy to achieve measurable improvements in population health outcomes. [...]public health interventions increasingly prioritize health equity and social justice, recognizing the importance of addressing systemic inequities and empowering marginalized communities to advocate for their health needs.
