The College of Micronesia-FSM and the FSM Department of Health Services are working together to support the publication of the journal, which is expected to be out at the end of this year.
They said the next issue can include articles from other parts of Micronesia but it will focus primarily on the Federated States of Micronesia.
The theme “Contemporary Health issues in the Federated States of Micronesia” had been chosen for the next issue.
The Pacific Health Dialog is a journal for community health and clinical practitioners in the Pacific and beyond and is published at least twice a year.
The main aim of PHD is to provide a platform for an international exchange of experiences and opinions from all aspects of health in the Pacific.
Ultimately, PHD aims to contribute toward improved health care and status at all levels for all Pacific peoples.
PHD is marketed to major health professional groups and those with an interest in Pacific health and welfare.
It contains peer-reviewed original papers, case reports, communications, viewpoints and opinions, reviews and news from Pacific health institutions, contributed by local and international health professionals.
