Nice to be able to share your trip. But you should also tell us about what you're learning at the conference.
ReplyDeleteExcellent point, Steve...perhaps most salient was the reinforcement of a systems approach to health services development and improvement, and the recognition that high-income countries have much to learn from low and middle-income ones, although differences within and between countries are, of course, often obscured in a global focus. Recalibrating power dynamics and funding streams to more fully support that complex reality and more community-based participatory approaches seemed a clear next step.
ReplyDeleteTo get a sense of the quality and quantity of presentations, take a look at the links below:
Book of abstracts
Full organized session descriptions and abstracts are now available, both for oral presentations (http://www.hsr-symposium.org/images/stories/abstracts.pdf) and posters (http://www.hsr-symposium.org/images/stories/poster_abstracts.pdf). In an effort to save paper, we will not be printing these full abstracts -- we hope that for most participants this electronic (easily searchable) version will be sufficient.
Lots of food for thought and reflection, and some new networking opportunities...
