Birthing the World - Conference on Best Practices in Perinatal Care
BIRTHING THE WORLD – Conference on Best Practices in Perinatal Care is a unique invitation to explore and reflect upon, from an interdisciplinary perspective, the multiple dimensions of the early period of life. This event is intended as a major step forward in how we conceive and perceive perinatal care. It is a unique opportunity for perinatal care practitioners of all stripes to come together around common issues relating to childbirth, breastfeeding and becoming parents, to share their knowledge with one another and to concert their efforts for the benefit of pregnant women and their families.
The conference is unique in that it will draw to one location a broad array of perinatal care practitioners who, though operating in the same field, rarely get the chance to share their experiences and questions. BIRTHING THE WORLD will be held at the Quebec City Convention Centre, November 25-26, 2010. It is being organized by the Association pour la santé publique du Québec ( ASPQ ) in partnership with the Association des omnipraticiens en périnatalité du Québec ( AOPQ ), the Regroupement Les Sages-femmes du Québec ( RSFQ ) and the Society of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists of Canada ( SOGC ).

CJNR Determinants of Mental Health, September 2010
Call for Papers
Most researchers agree that mental health is determined by a number of personal, social, and environmental factors. They also agree that we need to better understand how these factors come together to foster mental health, for whom, and under what conditions. We welcome manuscripts that address the complex theoretical and methodological challenges involved in exploring these issues. We invite submissions that examine the interactive effects of various personal demographics (e.g., age, gender, ethnicity, sexual identity and orientation), population characteristics (e.g., marginalization), and the role of place (socio-cultural environment and process) within a particular geography (urban/rural). We will also accept manuscripts that test programs designed to support mental health determinants for populations that are characterized by an integrated, cross-government approach, that combine promotion, prevention, treatment, and protection goals, and that target both population level and high-risk groups. We welcome submissions that review ways of ensuring that the best data sources (e.g., epidemiological) or research findings are used to guide improvements in complex delivery systems and to inform policy directions.
