The CDE Academy of Teaching and Learning - Ethical Narratives in Chronic Care

On behalf of the organizing committee, we invite you to participate in an upcoming Ethics Congress facilitated by the CDE Academy of Teaching and Learning. This much-anticipated inaugural Congress is scheduled to take place on the 23rd of August 2024 at The Maslow Hotel, Sandton, Gauteng.

This year's congress theme, ‘Ethical Narratives in Chronic Care’, aims to explore the evolving landscape of ethical considerations in this increasingly complex clinical space.

By embedding interprofessional education in medical education, and especially within the continuing medical education space, a more agile and client-centred approach to care provision can emerge. For this to occur, each healthcare professional will require enhanced capabilities. Each of us will need better understanding of each other’s roles, respect for our differences and enhanced communication skills.

When reflecting on the attributes needed by the future professional workforce, Frenk, et al. (2010) state that “growing gaps and inequalities in health and care, new infectious diseases, environment and behaviour risks, demographic challenges, changing disease patterns, antibacterial resistance, technological and informational advances, economic challenges, public health concerns in relation to chronic illness and recently a global pandemic” render the status quo unable to meet emerging complexities.

The CDE Academy of Teaching and Learning is committed to fostering an environment that encourages interdisciplinary collaboration and learning, and the exchange of perspectives to address the moral challenges of our time.

To confirm your interest in the Congress and for more information, including registration details, accommodation options, and the programme schedule, visit our website at www.cdediabetes.co.za contact our organizing committee at Events@duomed.org.

This meeting will be available both online and in-person.
