The Future of Healthcare Professionals: From Challenges to Solutions
Health systems worldwide are facing profound challenges. Demographic change, workforce shortages, rising costs, biomedical and technological innovations, and growing social inequalities require renewed reflection on the roles, competencies, and governance of health professions.
The conference “The Future of Healthcare Professionals: From Challenges to Solutions” explores these transformations and examines how they are reshaping health professions, professional regulation, interprofessional collaboration, workforce planning, education, and the organization of healthcare.
Bringing together researchers, practitioners, and decision-makers, the conference seeks to better understand how health systems can adapt to evolving needs while maintaining quality, accessibility, and equity of care. What skills will future healthcare professionals require? How can healthcare work be made more meaningful and sustainable for the next generation of professionals? Which governance and policy frameworks are needed to manage these changes?
Through a combination of presentations, discussions, and workshops, the conference aims to share perspectives and generate actionable insights. By connecting evidence, practice, and policy, it contributes to shaping a health workforce capable of responding to the complex challenges of today and tomorrow.
