The journal Primary Health Care is seeking contributions for a
special edition to mark the 5th anniversary of the establishment of
the journal. The focus of the edition will be concerned with
international issues in primary health care.

Ideally papers would provide a trans-national analysis and papers
that provide a comparative analysis of different funding or delivery
systems would be very welcome. In addition contributions of the
following types would also be particularly welcome:

1.  papers that seek to revisit one or all of the WHO principles of
PHC e.g equity, participation etc

2.  papers concerned with the Adelaide Conference action areas of the
health of women or food and nutrition.

3. papers concerned with governance issues in PHC (including research
governance)

However this list is only intended to be indicative and potential
authors are very welcome to discuss the suitability of a proposed
paper by contacting the guest editor at the address given below.

All papers will be subjected to the normal peer review process.

In the first instance authors should submit an abstract/overview of
their proposed paper of about 500-700 words by 30 June 2003

Authors will then be asked to produce a first draft by 30 September,
with a final draft by 31st Jan 04. Final papers will be between
3000-4000 words. Submission guidelines for the journal can be found
at www.phcrd.com

Abstracts or initial enquires should be sent to  Fiona Brooks
