Dermatological Care for All:
Awareness and ResponsAbility
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!
