21st Annual Paediatric Palliative Care Symposium

About this event

Join us for the annual Paediatric Palliative Care Symposium in 2025, hosted by the Palliative Care Service within The Sydney Children's Hospitals Network.

The two-day event is an educational and networking opportunity for health professionals who are involved in supporting the care of children receiving palliative care and their families. The program consists of an extensive variety of presentations, with an aim to share knowledge, and highlight advances in research and practice.

Delegates will enjoy a full day of face-to-face presentations followed by a second day of interactive workshops. We present a great line-up of speakers from various health disciplines, each expert in their respective fields, to discuss new and innovative forms of practice that align with this year's theme.
