Call for Abstracts

In Māori, the concept of "connections" can be expressed through the term "Ngā Hononga." This phrase encompasses the idea of linking, joining, or bonding together. It resonates with the notion of establishing relationships, networking, and fostering connections, which aligns well with the context of a symposium focused on bringing people together.

We invite registered members to submit an abstract for consideration at the upcoming symposium:

The criteria for consideration:

  • Must have a practical/clinical focus.
  • Must reflect current evidence-based practice.
  • Topics relating to tikanga (culture), te ara hou (innovation) or hāpori me te kotahitanga (communities and togetherness) will be welcomed.

There will be no streamed sessions, so all delegates will be invited to attend all sessions. Therefore, we encourage presenters to share work or research that is widely applicable across clinical areas and uses accessible language.

We will be welcoming presentations in many forms: single presenters, panel discussions, workshops, and stories.

The format of this year’s presentations will look a little different so that we can prioritise reflecting on the whakaaro of the speakers and collectively planning how new ideas can be implemented into practice. Our sessions will be action-focused. Please consider this when submitting your abstract.

Call for abstracts has now closed.
