The conference brings together leading innovators, researchers, practitioners, policy makers, representatives of civic society in the public health palliative care approach.

- abstract of a workshop of 1,5 hour during a parallel session in the conference, can be a scientific as well as a cultural or artistic workshop
- abstract of a symposium of 1,5 hour on a specific theme with maximum of 3 – 4 presentations and two chairs.

Please notice that for all four types only the corresponding author will be notified.
