Essay competition 2011 - call for submissions (Pioneer Health Foundation )

Registration is now open for this year's Pioneer Health Foundation (PHF) Essay Competition, under the theme 'The Peckham Experiment and its relevance in the 21st century'. The Peckham Experiment was a unique health centre that operated in Peckham, south London, from 1926 - 50. The centre pioneered research into the nature of health and its relation to environment, and its work will still resonate with anyone interested in the promotion of wellbeing, education, preventative health care, local food systems or sustainability, among other areas. For more information, please visit www.thephf.org. 

PHF sponsors an annual Essay Competition intended to encourage thinking that crosses boundaries between disciplines. It is open to students studying for any type of degree and offers a £500 prize. The competition asks entrants to express their own views on current problems of individual social and community health and wellbeing with reference to the principal findings of the Peckham Experiment. See the website (www.marylangmanprize.org.uk) for details, recommended reading and relevant topics.
