The Conference Program Committee is committed to offering a program that offers opportunities for delegates to network, share experience and expertise, and develop knowledge and skills. A particular focus is providing workshops and sessions sharing experiences and knowledge across different cultural settings, and in low resource countries and communities.
The Committee would like to invite delegates who have interesting case studies, examples and stories to tell, to nominate themselves as potential speakers for the Conference through an Abstract Submission.
An Abstract is a 250 word summary that describes the case study or example you would like to share. An Abstract Review Committee will then consider all Abstracts received and will invite some nominees to give either a 15 minute oral presentation during a workshop, or to set up a poster display during the Conference where they can share their case study.
Abstracts are sought that showcase studies where small local groups, or medium to large organisations, in a range of cultural and resource settings have implemented programs in the following areas:
- 1. Advocacy
- 2. Capacity Building
- 3. Education and Awareness
- 4. Peer Support
If you are successful in your abstract submission, you are required to pay your own travel costs to and during the conference as well as the conference registration fee.
