Register before Tuesday, 31st January, 2023, to benefit from the early bird registration for the in-person 2023 South African Palliative Care Conference scheduled to be held between Wednesday, 26th April, 2023, and Saturday 29th April, 2023, at Cape Town.
The conference is organised jointly by South Africa’s three leading palliative care organisations, the Association of Palliative Care Practitioners of South Africa (PALPRAC), the Palliative Care for Children South Africa (PatchSA) and the Hospice Palliative Care Association of South Africa (HPCA).
The conference is themed, ‘Palliative Care is Everyone’s Business’ in relation to the lack of preparedness of several healthcare providers to offer appropriate and timely end-of-life care to patients and families. The overriding focus of the workshops, plenary and parallel presentations at the conference will therefore focus on the imperative for palliative care of the future to be inclusive, relevant, and sustainable.
The conference organisers share that the conference will provide delegates with immense opportunities to network, exchange ideas and research and facilitate professional advancement.
Don’t forget to register before Tuesday, 31st January, 2023, to avail the early bird registration offer. Please click here to read further details about the conference.

Submit abstracts before Tuesday, 28th February, 2023, for the 15th Asia Pacific Hospice Palliative Care Conference 2023, scheduled to be held at Songdo Convensia, Incheon, Korea, between Wednesday, 4th October, 2023, and Saturday, 7th October, 2023. The biennial conference is being hosted by the Asia Pacific Hospice Palliative Care Network and the Korean Society of Hospice and Palliative Care.
The in-person conference will be in English. The theme for the upcoming conference is ‘Expanding Horizons of Palliative Care in the New Era’ to reflect the readiness to share knowledges, expertise, tips, pandemic experiences, and delaying sympathy of loss in each and every session, post a long covid break which deterred organising in-person conferences.
The Scientific Committee aims to bring together an interesting plenary session, and exciting symposium and workshop sessions which aim to showcase the increasing reach of palliative care, in both the Asia Pacific region as well globally.
