13-14 Nov 2021
Online: Official APHC 2021 website: https://site2.convention.co.jp/aphc2021/

The biennial Asia Pacific Hospice Conferences of the Asia Pacific Hospice Palliative Care Network (APHN) with the dual aims of enhancing knowledge in hospice palliative care and for networking within the region. This conference is the focal point which brings together workers, supporters and friends of hospice and palliative care in the Asia Pacific every two years.

In many Asian countries and regions, access to palliative care remains insufficient, and the distress of many people has not been fully addressed. Health care providers in many Asian countries and regions suffer limited access to palliative care knowledge, quality education, and opportunities to interact with experts in palliative care. Thus, this year’s conference theme shall be: "Building Bridges: Hospice Palliative Care Beyond Borders".
