- Introduction
- Palliative Care practice is complex and challenging and its success depends on building bridges between different professional and non professional groups, disciplines, countries, regions and continents. We seek to bring together the best caregivers, clinicians, researchers and educators in the field of palliative care along with the best opportunities to meet friends, colleagues and experts and gain new ideas and insights on how to improve care for patients and their families.
