is organising the
Fourth International Congress Dermatological Care for All:
Awareness and responsibility
First Announcement
Dear Colleagues and Friends,
While 2015, the date established for the attainment of the
MDGs is getting near, we feel the urgency of facing with
determination Goal 6: Combat HIV/AIDS, malaria and other
diseases, the issues falling within our professional tasks
and expertise. I would like to invite not only dermatologists
but all health professionals and specialists interested
in tackling in-depth strategies for increasing the availability
and affordability of health care in developing countries
and where poverty diseases are more neglected. This includes
promoting and supporting research, strengthening primary
health systems, improving collaboration with the local
communities and health workers in shared action plans.
I therefore encourage participation of dermatologists, infectious
disease specialists, epidemiologists, sociologists, anthropologists,
nurses, public health officers sharing our same goals.
Social events will also be an important part of the meeting,
a great chance to improve relationships among colleagues
from all over the world, to share ideas and impressions in
a friendly atmosphere, while discovering the hospitality,
the history and the beauties of a particularly interesting
Country.
See you in Ethiopia!
