Ireland will host the World Organization of Family Doctors (WONCA) World Rural Health Conference in Limerick in June 2022.
The conference will be held from 17th to 20th June 2022, with three joint hosts:
• University of Limerick School of Medicine
• Rural, Island and Dispensing Doctors of Ireland
• Irish College of General Practitioners
The theme will explore how communities can be, and are, empowered to improve their own health and the health of those around them. We will hear from experts and presenters from all over the world in various sectors, including Health, Science, Engineering, the Arts, and NGO's of all shapes and sizes. Community Empowerment for Health goes beyond the traditional methods of information sharing and consultation. It involves a change in power relations, and enables people to have more control and responsibility for their own health and well-being. V
