We are very excited host the 18^th International Medical Geography Symposium (IMGS) in New Zealand from 30 June to 5 July, 2019. The IMGS is the main meeting ground for health geographers across the English-speaking world along with interested researchers from other disciplines. The IMGS 2019 will be held at the Heritage Hotel in Queenstown, located amongst the Southern Alps in New Zealand’s South Island. The stunning Lake Wakatipu is a fitting backdrop for our conference theme New Directions, Enlarging Our World. The organising committee welcomes all individuals interested in environmental health, health policy, urban and rural health, global health, health equity, public health, and relevant research methods to join us in Queenstown June 30th to July 5th, 2019.
