Longwoods has published its last issue of World Health & Population (Volume 18, Number 1). This peer-reviewed journal for administrators, academics, researchers and policy leaders has been a labour of love for a long time but it is no longer feasible to continue publishing. Longwoods.com will continue to host all past issues online and will make them open access for any and all visitors to read. Moving forward, our sister journal, Healthcare Quarterly, will accept submissions under this topic. Thank you to our editors for all their time and work on this journal and to you our subscribers.
