In September 2021 the palliative care sector will gather in the beautiful location of Sydney, Australia for the 2021 Oceanic Palliative Care Conference #21OPCC, formerly the Australian Palliative Care Conference.
Proudly hosted by Palliative Care Australia, the Conference will attract the decision makers of today, the future leaders of tomorrow, policy influencers and those involved in the latest research and thinking about palliative care and end of life care on a national and international scale. The 2021 conference will be held at International Convention Centre, in Sydney from 7 – 10 September 2021.
