Working together for better palliative care: What would true international collaboration with impact look like? We will bring together several experts with knowledge and experience of palliative care within the Oceanic region and the global community. The panel will discuss international and social trends in palliative care that can impact service delivery for palliative care patients. The panel will also examine how Australia can be taking a more strategic leadership role to support palliative care globally. In particular, panellists will have the opportunity to discuss how Australian governments and palliative care organisations can better support our near neighbours in the region with their palliative priorities - particularly facilitating better access to palliative care education, medicines, and services.
