NATSIEHC23 Registration and Theme
We are pleased to announce that registrations are now open for the 2023 National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Eye Health Conference (NATSIEHC23), being held on Dharug Country in Western Sydney from Wednesday 24 to Friday 26 May 2023.
Early bird registrations now open! until 28 Feb.
The Conference is designed to bring together and connect people involved in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander eye care from local communities, Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Organisations, health services, non-government organisations, professional bodies and government departments from across the country. We would like to invite everyone who is working on or interested in improving eye health and eye care for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians.
The 2023 Conference is led by the National Experts Group on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Eye Health (NEGATSIEH), which contributes to the Conference Leadership Group, and co-hosted by the Aboriginal Health and Medical Research Council of NSW (AH&MRC), and supported by the Indigenous Eye Health Unit (IEHU) at The University of Melbourne.
Conference Theme
The theme for this year's Conference is Our Vision in Our Hands: Finding Our Voice, representing Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander leadership and ownership of eye health, and linking the work of the sector with the broader movements for self-determination and centring First Nations voices. More information about the theme can be found on our website.
Also consider submitting an abstract and share your work with the sector. More information about abstract submission, including abstract preparation support information, can also be found on our website.
