The Australian Pharmacy Council (APC) has announced that its 2024 Interprofessional (IPE) Colloquium will be themed “Winhangarra: Listen, Hear, Think” with an intense focus on “amplifying Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander voices to transform health profession education and practice”. Now in its sixth year, the popular gathering will once again discuss health profession education and its links to practice. “With Interprofessional Education at its core, the event has become a unique place of interaction between academics, policymakers, researchers, health practitioners and students across the health professions,” according to APC CEO Bronwyn Clark. Topics covered in the 2024 program will include co-design, Indigenising curriculum, cultural safety and how professions can work together to achieve this. “In Wiradjuri, Winhangarra means to listen, hear and think… when we honour this we are taking intentional steps towards personal transformation and achieving greater health outcomes for all Australians,” Clark said. “We need to prioritise listening to the advice provided by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander voices, so that decisions that affect them are led by them,” she explained. “Currently, this matter is under a national microscope, and regardless of the outcome, we will continue to engage in our work to embed cultural safety into pharmacy education…our Colloquium theme aims to act on that commitment.” To take place in Brisbane on 22 May next year, the full program will be released shortly, with a program of Indigenous speakers and nonIndigenous allies from across health professions to discuss their work and research in this space. The IPE Colloquium aims to highlight the latest research in health profession education and contemporary practice, with previous topics including creating resilience, student preparedness, virtual reality, mental health, interprofessional collaboration, and Indigenous health.
