EAHIL Seville 2016 Public Health Group Meeting Thursday 9th June, 15-16 Hotel Silken Al-Andalus Palace, Piano Bar Minutes Co-Chairs: Tomas Allen, Sue Thomas Secretary: Katri Larmo 1. Acceptance of the agenda The agenda was accepted without changes. 2. Updates from WHO Tomas updated us about the latest news from WHO. Klaus Boisen from WHO Euro has changed jobs. We are sorry to lose Klaus from our group and wish him best success in his new challenges. There will be a new P3 position in EURO, (P3 = UN System of classification of posts - https://careers.un.org/lbw/home.aspx?viewtype=SC) in Copenhagen. This is a significant upgrade from the previous post as there are more responsibilities in the area of publication as well as requirement to speak/work in Russian. IRIS is further expanding: there are now about 150 000 documents; globally, from all regional offices, in many languages. 3. Supranational status and impact on PHIG There has been a long ongoing discussion about the possibility of supranational membership for EAHIL. That is to guarantee that EAHIL members working in supranational organizations stationed in a specific country would not affect the representation and votes of that specific country within EAHIL organs. The most practical solution seems to be a specific membership model for supranational representatives where they could be active, but with no voting rights. 4. Hinari trainers Gaby Caro presented the Hinari training community. Everyone who knows people who could work as trainers, please contact Gaby. To spread the word about Hinari and Research4Life programmes these materials can be used as help:
揃 Presenting Hinari (12 slides) with explanatory notes on each slide http://www.who.int/entity/hinari/training/Basic_Course/en/index.html 揃 The Research4Life programmes (25 slides) with some explanatory notes http://www.research4life.org/training/aboutr4lprograms/ Elsevier also has promoted a grant to do training and materials. CABI representatives might be possible Hinari promoters as well. 5. Consumer / Patient health Ivana Truccolo and her colleagues have been doing excellent work with patient information for a long time and they have three new interesting publications to share: CIPOLAT MIS, C., TRUCCOLO, I., RAVAIOLI, V., COCCHI, S., GANGERI, L., MOSCONI, P., DRACE, C., POMICINO, L., PARADISO, A., DE PAOLI, P. and Italian Cancer Patient Education Group, 2015. Making patient centered care a reality: a survey of patient educational programs in Italian Cancer Research and Care Institutes. BMC Health Services Research, 20150730, Jul 30, vol. 15, pp. 298-015-0962-5 ISSN 1472-6963; 1472-6963. DOI 10.1186/s12913-015-0962-5 [doi]. TRUCCOLO, I., 2016. Providing patient information and education in practice: the role of the health librarian. Health Information and Libraries Journal, Jun, vol. 33, no. 2, pp. 161-166 ISSN 1471-1842; 1471-1834. DOI 10.1111/hir.12142 [doi]. TRUCCOLO, I., CIPOLAT MIS, C., CERVO, S., DAL MASO, L., BONGIOVANNI, M., BEARZ, A., SARTOR, I., BALDO, P., FERRARIN, E., FRATINO, L., MASCARIN, M., RONCADIN, M., ANNUNZIATA, M.A., MUZZATTI, B. and DE PAOLI, P., 2016.

Sam Johnsson has looked for patient information in different languages, also others than English. Medline Plus has a good coverage on that. Now also public libraries in different countries have taken up the challenge to provide patient information in immigrant and minority languages. Ivana took up the issue of language also in the sense of how professionals talk to patients. Is the professional language always understandable for the patients and consumers? Tomas will organize a WebEx follow up meeting on the topic of languages. 6. EAHIL Cardiff 2018 Conference Sue Thomas presented the plans EAHIL 2018 Cardiff Conference, on 913 July 2018. The venue is booked, LOC working and IPC members recruited, so everything is progressing well. The conference will cover a wide variety of themes. Ideas for continuing education courses are welcomed. Sue will also set up an electronic form for volunteering giving CEC's. We'll be looking forward to a very interesting and successful conference with lots of PHIG issues included in the program!
7. Other business Teresa Lee gave an interesting idea for the future conferences/workshops: "unconference" where short (e.g. one minute) promotional speeches are given, to gather a group of people interested on the same topic to discuss and cooperate on that topic. The groups are formed there and then. This idea got a positive response and it's surely worth trying in future. 8. Close CoChairs Sue and Tomas thanked everyone for their contribution and closed the meeting at 16.
