The world has seen remarkable gains over the last two decades. Polio has been eradicated, child mortality has halved and HIV is becoming a chronic disease. While there is still more to be done, global priorities are now shifting from solely preventing mortality to improving health for all. Acknowledging the complexity of health systems, this year’s conference will bring together clinicians, researchers, and advocacy workers to explore how we can maximise the gains we have made in mortality and optimise health for all.

Cultivating The Radical Heart: A conversation on authentic engagement with artist DonChristian Jones
How do we protect ourselves and our communities from the potential violence of linear thought and categorical presumption, in an era of “alternative facts”? The human propensity and capacity for mental schemas may indeed be survivalist—with exponential and congruent relationships to the global era of information technology. What are some modes and methods to authentic living and engagement as means of creating the change we wish to see? The radical mind, an ancient catalyst for revolution, is still founded in intellectualism. Perhaps feeling more will stand to make the difference.
