RESPOND would like to warmly invite you to join them at the live, virtual RESPOND People-Centred Symposium 2022 chaired by Martin McKee and Dina Balabanova.

The symposium will showcase the lived experiences of people who seek, provide, or enable chronic illness care navigate health systems. Now we need to hear from more service users, health care providers, carers and communities – we need help from people with lived experiences to understand the challenges they face and find ways to move forward.

They invite you to join them in an open discussion about why health systems often fail, how to respond to the needs of those which these systems have been designed to serve, and where to find answers. Together, let's put people into the centre of chronic care.

The zoom link to join this symposium will be sent to the registered attendees a few days before the event. Follow them on the RESPOND website, Twitter and Facebook for more details.
