Message from Organising Chair ICON-IPEPC 2022

Prof. Dr. Soumendra Sahoo

Dear Delegates

It gives me great pleasure to invite you to the 3rf International Conference on Interprofessional Education Practice & Care 2022 (ICON-IPEPC) which, considering the current times, will be a hybrid event. The theme of this second edition is ‘Making Interprofessional Collaborative Practice Possible

Interprofessional education (IPE) occurs when health professionals from diverse disciplines purposefully learn from each other. It is being deduced increasingly that a multidisciplinary approach is the optimal model of patient care. A perfect way to achieve this would be a sound collaboration among disciplines, institutions & regions. Keeping this concept in mind, the third edition of IPEPC will deliberate mostly on teaching Interprofessional Collaborative Practice Skills, Strengthening Equity, Diversity & Inclusion for IPE/IPP/IPCP, mitigating collaboration challenges and leadership skills.

The Conference will see diverse presentations in form of plenary sessions, panel discussions, debates and workshops involving various nationally and internationally acclaimed experts in the field of IPE, in addition to the traditional free papers & e-posters.

It’s my supreme pleasure to invite you to this hybrid conference of Manipal University College Malaysia (MUCM), new in name perhaps to the earlier MMMC, nevertheless a true blue-chip Institution in our near quarter century of professional medical education in Malaysia.

Please do register to get an immense insight to IPE/IPP/IPC concepts that may transform healthcare globally.

Enjoy the conference!
