CONSUMERS REFORMING HEALTH 2011 CONFERENCE
Health Issues Centre will host the inaugural international conference for community engagement in health care.

Consumers Reforming Health 2011 is a forum developed specifically for those with interest in involving consumers in health policy and process. The conference upholds the essential principle that consumer participation is fundamental for health development, clinical governance, community capacity building and health outcomes.

 

The program aims to demonstrate and enhance this proposition by exploring the experiences, frameworks and practical strategies of participation in a number of health sectors among a diverse range of relevant stakeholders. It intends to broker some new learning on core principles for future change.
