WELCOME TO LISBOA!
Welcome to the 16th ISPW!
The Organizing Committee of the 16th International Social Pharmacy Workshop would like to extend you a very friendly welcome to Lisboa. The Faculty of Pharmacy and the University of Lisbon are delighted to host the 16th ISPW, from Monday 23rd to Thursday 26th August, 2010.
The 16th ISPW aims to bring together scholars around the world that share a common passion of improving pharmacy practice and related health outcomes. This Workshop will set a special emphasis on the role of communication and information, as ubiquitous and directly engaged with health care practitioners and quality of health care.
A great and committed effort was made in developing the Programme, promising an excellent opportunity for the exchange of ideas and knowledge, meet up with old friends, make new friends, and strengthen the social pharmacy network. Plenary Key Speakers will provide us with different perspectives on communication and information issues pertaining pharmacy practice and medicines use. As well as with the usual series of Workshops which form the backbone of the meeting, the 16th ISPW will run a special series of Symposiums aimed as forums of debate. The Programme will also offer the opportunity for a great number of Oral Communications and Poster Presentations. We therefore believe you will find it rewarding and stimulating.
During your stay, we very much hope that you will be able to enjoy our city. The Programme includes several exciting social events, designed to bring to you a taste of Portuguese culture, Lisboa atmosphere and its sunlight – an inspiration to so many artists. We are confident that your stay in Lisboa will be a memorable one!
We warmly welcome you all to Lisboa and look forward to see you at the 16th International Social Pharmacy Workshop in August 2010.
