The Summer School for Public Health comes to Maó

The XIII edition of the Summer School for Public Health will be held from September 16 to 21 at the Llatzeret in the Port of Maó. The programme includes a wide range of courses, workshops and meetings, in which people from all levels of action in the public health will participate, covering investigation to the formulation of transnational health policies.

The Llatzeret, in the mouth of the port of Maó, facing the municipality of Es Castell, was originally a peninsular but in the XIX century was transformed in islet via the construction of an artificial canal in the isthmus that joined it to the north coast of the port, with a view to holding contagious patients and vessels in quarantine. At present is has a residence administered by the Ministry of Health, base for the Summer School for Public Health held there every year.
