  • Int. PC Conference , Ljubljana Nov 23

    We would like to bring to your attention the 2nd International Scientific Conference of Primary Care that will take place on November 23 and 24, 2023 in Ljubljana, Slovenia.

    The Ljubljana Community Health Centre, in collaboration with the Faculty of Medicine, a member of the University of Ljubljana, is organizing the Conference under the main theme: Interprofessional Teamwork and Quality in Healthcare. The main Conference Topics that will be covered are:

    •             Integrated primary care

    •             Quality and safety of interprofessional work in primary care

    •             Planetary health and sustainability in primary care

    •             Interprofessional education and training with simulators and other new approaches

    The Scientific Committee has been preparing an exciting programme based on the main topics, addressing all professionals involved in primary healthcare (physicians, nurses, social workers, public health specialists, physiotherapists, dentists, administrators, psychologists, sociologists), as well as educators, key opinion leaders, informal caregivers, and patients.

    You can find more information on www.iscpc.si, where you can register for the event.

    We believe the Conference will bring our attention to the important issue that is Primary Care and we look forward to meeting you in Ljubljana, Slovenia, in November.

  • After Brussels

    Thank you so much to everyone who joined us for the WONCA Europe Pre-Conference and Conference in Brussels! We had a fantastic time. We would like to welcome two new executive members: Marika Svatošová (Treasurer) and Yanica Vella (Exchange Officer) who were elected during our council meeting! Special thanks to the pre-conference HOC for an amazing event – see more here.

    Young family doctors also made up 32% of all attendees at the main conference, which is huge! 3 of our EYFDM Members (Stuart Holmes and Ikbal Humay Arman from the executive and Daria Gheorge, our National Delegate from France) gave a very impactful plenary speech – if you missed it you can watch it here.

    Thanks to the generosity of attendees, we also raised €3940 for our EYFDM Fund via the lottery, which we will use to fund bursaries for those from LMIC to attend our future events. If you have been lucky enough to win a prize, please contact awards@eyfdm.eu.
