A call for abstracts for the South African Palliative Care Conference 2025 has been made. The conference aims to reach out and to welcome professionals and other healthcare providers from a broad diversity of vocations whose work brings them in contact with patients across all ages with life-threatening and life-limiting conditions. Abstract submissions are welcome from anywhere in the world, and not just from residents of South Africa. A significant component of the conference programme will be abstract-driven, and you are encouraged to submit work that introduces new and innovative ideas, concepts, research findings and advances to the field of adult and/or paediatric and/or palliative care systems, as well as analysis of both success and failure. We invite all forms of research, studies and reports. The focus of the conference will be on the imperative for palliative care to be inclusive, innovative, solution focused, and an integral component of all healthcare provision and the conference theme is Palliative Care: Revolution. Evolution. Solution. Revolution: Calling for fundamental transformation of the existing status quo to ensure palliative care is viewed as an obligation of the healthcare system, equal in value to preventative, curative and rehabilitative care. Evolution: Celebrating palliative care models evolving to better serve the needs of a diverse South African population, encompassing communities of every age, culture, belief system and socioeconomic status. Solution: Illuminating innovative problem solving within programmes addressing barriers to the provision of quality palliative care for all. The conference programme will include workshops, panel discussions, plenary and parallel presentations and will be compiled with due consideration by the multidisciplinary Scientific Committees. You are invited to submit abstracts for presentation at the conference. Abstracts can be submitted either as an oral or as a poster presentation and the final decision on the format will be made by the elected Conference Scientific Committees. Please note, the deadline for abstract submission is 16 February 2025. Follow this link to learn more: Call For Abstracts – Palliative Care (pcconference.co.za)
