Abstract
The European Journal of Public Health is an international multidisciplinary journal devoted to public health research and analysis. The goal is to support the development of a pan-European agenda within a global public health framework. The multidisciplinary international nature of the journal is characterized by the number and diversity of the manuscripts received for review, the composition of the editorial and reviewer groups, the number and type of databases In which the journal is abstracted, and the wide-ranging membership of the European Public Health Association, whose journal it is. The journal also adheres to the guidelines set down by the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors for manuscript submission, supplemented by specific policy documents.
