Discussion Sessions
Register now
The chair has the responsibility to invite and lead a group of speakers through a series of thought-provoking and critically reflective linked statements, drawing out potential challenges for the audience. It is important to deliver a coherent session with speakers working together thoughtfully. The aim of the session should be to create an insightful and engaging learning experience for clinicians, managers, educators, researchers, and/or policy makers (depending on the topic) that ultimately informs, inspires, involves, and empowers congress participants and allows time for discussion.
The official language of the congress is English. All presentations will be delivered in English. No translation services will be provided.
