Hybrid meeting - full program in-person; online sessions available
The 2020 and 2021 ISBNPA XChange successfully provided a safer, easily accessible, and ecological solution. But we missed the immersive experience of "being there", networking, and, of course, the social program.
Now imagine attending an annual meeting that combines face-to-face networking opportunities with online participation. Like a Phoenix rising from the ashes, ISBNPA 2022 will be a renewed and improved version of our annual meetings.
Join us at the first-ever hybrid ISBNPA Annual Meeting on May 18-21, 2022, in Phoenix, US!
You'll be able to choose the in-person or the online meeting, so everyone has access to this great event no matter where they live or work.
Theme
In the time of COVID-19, racial conflict, natural disasters and global unrest, health disparities have been magnified. Now more than ever, we need to understand, support, and advance factors that promote resilience and push the innovation in science for behavioral nutrition and physical activity.
While this is the main theme, ISBNPA invites you to submit your best research on the usual themes. But, as ever, our reviewers will focus on creating the best scientific program in behavioral nutrition and physical activity, independently of the topic.

Keynotes
We are very pleased to let you know that three keynotes already confirmed their talks in Phoenix.

Community of Care
We take the COVID-19 pandemic seriously, and we want to ensure every precaution for participants’ safety. Therefore, at a minimum, all participants will be asked to disclose their vaccination status, participate in daily symptom and temperature checks, be required to demonstrate proof of negative test in the past 24 hours, and masks will be required at the conference.
The space in the Phoenix Convention Center is large enough for social distancing, hand sanitizer will be placed throughout the venue, and rapid 24-hour testing will be available at registration. We will continue to follow the latest evidence-based guidelines and provide updates on our COVID mitigation plan as needed. It takes everyone in our ISBNPA community to contribute to these safety efforts.

Social Program
And yes, the ISBNPA Gala Dinner returns to our Annual Meeting, respecting all the community of care criteria.
We already booked the wonderful Desert Botanical Garden for the ISBNPA Gala Dinner.
Look at the pics... now picture you there 🥳.
Combining art, architecture and nature, Chihuly in the Desert is set against majestic saguaros, the striking Papago buttes and a World Heritage site. Chihuly’s masterpieces stun from day to night as color, light, and form come alive for the first time ever at two locations for a joint exhibition.

New Special Interest Groups |

Learn all about ISBNPA's new SIGs:
- Chaired by Melinda Hutchesson(Chair) and Eleanor Winpenny (Co-Chair)
The new ISBNPA SIG Participatory Research in Health Promotion brings together members who conduct or have an interest in conducting participatory research in health promotion.
In participatory research the persons whose life or work is the subject of the research are actively involved throughout the research process. This approach is promising in tackling public health problems and has therefore grown in recent years, with many researchers being convinced about its value. Nevertheless, participatory research brings along many challenges related to the planning, conduct, evaluation and governing of trustworthy participatory research. By exchanging views and experiences, this SIG promotes and supports high-quality participatory research.

Have you noticed some of our latest tweets in simplified-Chinese?
We thank our wonderful Chinese colleagues who are doing an internship with us, Yueyang Wang, Xinpei Wang, Zhogxin Zhang, and Mingbo Li (and the Global Cultural Adventurers initiative) for their insights and help in reaching the Chinese research community in behavioral nutrition and physical activity.
Expect more soon...
