description The 2003 outbreak of SARS in Canada, the heat wave of2003 across Europe, the constant challenges to humanhealth resulting from extreme climate events (e.g., hurricanes,typhoons, etc.) and the everyday problems of poor sanitation,air pollution and the lack of immunisation in the developingworld point to the need for an effective local, national andeven an international public health workforce (PHWF). Inthis paper, the challenges of creating an effective PHWF areat first placed in the context of health promotion and globalchanges. Using recent experience from the 2003 outbreak ofSARS in Canada and work carried out for the Pan AmericanHealth Organization, defining the PHW and what is requiredof a PHW to meet the challenges of health promotion andglobal changes are discussed. We conclude by assessing theprospects for creating an effective PHW within the frameworkof health promotion and global changes.
