THEME FOR CONFERENCE & ABSTRACT SUBMISSIONS

Advancing Person-centred Fundamental Care: Collaborative Action for Impact and Influence

The 2027 ILC Conference in Aalborg, Denmark will explore how we can advance person-centred fundamental care through collaboration, collective action and a shared commitment to change.

Building on the momentum of past ILC conferences, the program will move beyond identifying what matters in fundamental care to exploring how we can translate knowledge, ambition and evidence into meaningful and sustainable impact.

The conference will bring together researchers, educators, clinicians, leaders, policymakers and people with lived experience to examine the pathways through which change can be generated. At its heart, the conference is about connecting ideas with action: strengthening our collective capability to lead change, generate knowledge, shape systems and ultimately influence the future of person-centred fundamental care.

We encourage you to submit abstracts which explore this theme, and to think about the following sub-themes when developing your submission:

  1. Collaborative Practice — transforming care through interprofessional and cross-disciplinary collaboration
  2. Collective Action — turning ambition into implementation, influence and impact
  3. Leading Change — leadership, culture and workforce transformation
  4. Learning for the Future — education, capability and professional development
  5. Generating Knowledge — research, innovation and evidence
  6. Shaping Systems — policy, strategy and influencing the global care agenda
