The theme for this year's conference is 'Emotion, Inspiration and Creativity: Pathways to Global Health Quality'.

The conference was originally scheduled to take place in Florence, Italy. The Renaissance was a period of rebirth with new ideas discoveries and the flowering of wonderful art. We hope that there will be the rebirth of our belief systems in the goodness of health and the ability to deliver safe and effective people-centred care.

1. Leading for Quality [Emotion]
