“HEALTH AND WELLBEING FOR ALL
– HEADING FOR THE FUTURE”
Nordic Public Health Conference – NEW DATES: 28 – 30 JUNE 2022
Update November 2021
Dear delegates,
Both conferences were postponed from 2020, due to COVID-19, and will take place in the end of June and beginning of July 2022 in Reykjavik.
As previously planned the conferences will take place in the same week with one shared day. This gives a great opportunity to explore the commonalities between Public Health and Positive Psychology. The home of the conference is Harpa, Reykjavik´s spectacular conference and concert hall located by the harbour, downtown Reykjavik.
Registration is now open.
We can always count on Downtown Reykjavik to add a splash of colour to our day 🌈 Take a walk down the streets of downtown @visitreykjavik and you'll discover a brilliant display of street art gracing some of the buildings 🏠 #inspiredbyiceland

FOUND: The ideal place to relax and recharge after an adventure in @southiceland 🙏💦 Laugarvatn Fontana is an invigorating and historical bathing site where you can enjoy the healing powers of the geothermal waters, soak in natural pools, and listen to the bubbling hot spring in the steam rooms. For the venturesome, take a cooling dip in the refreshing Laugarvatn Lake next to the pools! After your visit, be sure to check out the geothermal bakery where they bake delicious rye bread following an old recipe in the steamy, geothermally heated ground. #inspiredbyiceland

When life gives you hot water—you make a spa out of it! 🧖♀️ So on #WorldBathingDay visit the newly opened Forest Lagoon in @northiceland 💎
The story of the Forest Lagoon, a new geothermal spa begins with digging the long (and unpronounceable) Vaðlaheiðargöng tunnel in 2014, when workers accidentally discovered a new geothermal hot water source deep in the mountain. The road authorities diverted the hot waters and use them not far away in a gorgeous place on the side of a mountain overlooking the town of Akureyri and Eyja Fjord. 🏔💦
The Forest Lagoon has Scandinavian charm, with a cold bath and a sauna attached to the main leisure bath. It also has several walking paths to enjoy through the surrounding forest. #inspiredbyiceland

The Icelandic government approved a bill to increase the reimbursement of production costs to film producers to 35 percent for larger projects 🇮🇸🎞 We can't wait for the results! 😊
Happy Icelandic Independence Day! 🇮🇸 Today is all about parades and flag-waving, adorable children in national costumes, traditional music, and prominent people extolling the nation's virtues through stirring speeches.
Don't forget the bouncy castles, raucous concerts, too many hot dogs, and sugar-laden kids running wild in national costumes! 🌭🌭🌭

Time to eat your way through #Iceland (at home!) 🇮🇸😋 Even if you can't get to Iceland, you can still draw inspiration from its food. Known for its fish, lamb, and skyr-based dishes, Iceland is one of several island nations that are not only on the frontlines of the climate crisis but are innovating the way we think about food production. 👇🏻 Find all the inspiration you need in the article by @marthastewart (link in bio).
Did you know that the arctic fox is Iceland’s only native mammal? 🇮🇸 This fascinating animal prospered for thousands of years, battling the elements and the rough terrain to become one of history’s toughest natural survivors.
