COVID-19 update

(Page last updated: 7th September 2020)

Dear Colleagues,

The coronavirus (COVID-19) has spread across the world, causing disruption which also resulted in the postponement of our conference in Cyprus to 2-4 September 2020. 

Travel restrictions are gradually being eased across the world. However, our conference host, the European University Cyprus, will remain closed until October 2020 and has suspended all planned events on-campus. Given this development, we have reviewed the various options available in relation to the conference. 

In order to avoid further delay, we decided to hold the conference online on 2-4 September 2020 as a virtual conference. However, we also recognise that the value of our conference lies not only in the generation of new scientific knowledge but also in bringing the OHP community together in the collaborative, supportive and friendly way we have been fostering since the EAOHP was established.

We therefore will be organising a follow-up face-to-face EAOHP Symposium on 17-18 June 2021 in Rome. The focus of this event will be on ‘Mental health and Well-being at work in times of crisis’ and we would like to invite all delegates who have registered for the conference (Option A - full participation) to also participate in this event, free of charge. We believe that through this innovative package of events online and face-to-face we will be able to continue to bring the OHP community together, enhance different avenues of interaction and collaboration, and showcase what our discipline can offer to the world during this challenging time. We sincerely hope that you all enjoyed the online conference and will be able to join us follow-up event in Rome.

More information about the follow-up event in Rome on 17-18 June 2021 will be provided in early 2021.

We anticipate you will have questions around these arrangements and we have created a list of Frequently Asked Questions here that we will be regularly updating. We kindly ask that you please refer to this before emailing us.

Thank you for your continuous support and cooperation.
