Colleagues a welcome from me David Pattison Head of International Development at NHS Health Scotland, I am here working with the WHO Geneva team. We have had a very good few days and the programme and papers are being printed as we speak. We are all looking forward to meeting you all over the next few days and I hope you enjoy the week

Asante and looking forward to the programme

David

Asante (thank you) for the karibu (welcome) - hopefully, by now you have picked enough Swahili to get by. Those of us following the conference remotely (me from Canada) keenly look forward to connecting with the programme and participants through this wonderful c2c online forum. We have already had a few conversations about using social media tools to cover the conference and sustain the health promotion dialogue so it's exciting to see what community of practice may emerge out of this forum post-conference. I should mention that I am a Kenyan national working on health communication initiatives with the British Columbia Ministry of Health - eagerly learning as much as I can to bring back home. Have a wonderful time in Nairobi.
