Abstract(s)

This article aims to provide a reflection triggered by a ‘round table’ discussion at the VAX-TRUST project final conference regarding the interconnection between health sociology and public health. This interconnection is characterized by complexity, as it involves navigating the various ways in which sociological perspectives can inform and contribute to our understanding of health issues and the development of health interventions. Within these discussions, a tapestry of challenges and triumphs has unfolded, offering a rich understanding of the sociological landscape within the realm of public health. Despite encountering obstacles, researchers have exhibited remarkable resilience and reflexivity, navigating through uncertainties with unwavering determination. The project demonstrated the effectiveness of collaborating with the public health field in devising concrete action plan, highlighting the importance of interdisciplinary engagement in driving meaningful progress in health and beyond.
