With over 300 abstract submissions to this conference representing a wide range of professional, clinical, academic, and community, patient and caregiver backgrounds from across Canada and abroad.

caregivers, families and communities.
The conference stands as a path to enhance integrated care and population health, bringing together a diverse audience from around the world—30% international and 70% national attendees. We are convening the largest integrated care and population health programme in Canada, where every facet of health and social care, alongside community members, will engage in learning, unlearning, and growing together for a higher performing health and care system. NACIC24 has been co designed with caregiver, patient and community member partners and will be co attended and co presented.

in association with the IFIC Integrated Care Academy and IFIC Canada, the North America Centre for Integrated Care. The School will take place on *Friday, 18 and Saturday 19 October* at the Westin Calgary. This immersive learning experience responds to demand from the health and aged care sectors in Canada and North America to help build knowledge, capacity and skills to support the effective design and adoption of integrated care in practice.
The two-day course is designed as a short, intensive, residential program for individuals, teams and local partners to support the advancement of their integrated care projects and plans in their own context.
The course has been developed for those involved in the design, implementation, management and evaluation of integrated care approaches and whom want to learn more about leading initiatives, new models of care and evidence-based practice. Specifically it provides a unique opportunity for networking and discussing real-world problems and share learning with other participants and IFIC’s expert faculty.
The course will be taught by leading academics, policy makers and practitioners including IFIC’s international team of experts. It will have a combination of lectures, facilitated discussions, a site visit to the Sheldon M. Chumir Health Centre. If you are interested in attending or know someone who would benefit from attending, make sure to register ASAP before all places are filled. The course is specifically kept to smaller numbers so that it is a more personal and engaging experience.
