The Association of Public Health Observatories (APHO) represents a network of 12 public health observatories (PHOs) working across the five nations of England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. The APHO produces information, data and intelligence on people's health and health care for practitioners, policy makers and the wider community.

APHO is the focus for joint public health intelligence work with organisations across these nations, and those working in Europe and beyond. The key role of the Association of Public Health Observatories is to develop public health expertise and in-depth knowledge of health and health care at a regional level. APHO monitors and forecasts trends in health status and disease, playing a role in showing how health inequalities are being tackled locally and regionally.
