Introduction
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are derived from the United
Nations to end poverty and hunger, improving health and education, making
cities more sustainable, combating climate change, and protecting oceans
and forests. The SDGs are supposed to be achieved by 2030. Despite many
efforts around the world to achieve the SDGs, there are a number of areas
where progress remains slow. The World Health Organization (WHO) reports
that there is inequality health status and quality of care in every region of
Asia-Pacific. It happens because of differences in health care resources,
utilization and access to reviews some of the inputs, outputs and outcomes
of health care systems.
The solution can be done through health innovation in interprofessional
education (IPE) and collaborative practice (CP). It can play a significant role
in mitigating many challenges faced by health systems around the world.
Collaborative practice has been identified as a promising means of
strengthening health systems and improving health outcomes. Such
collaboration is increasingly regarded as important for health systems
worldwide to meet complex health needs given the limited human and
financial resources (Mickan et al. 2010; Reeves et al. 2009).
Countries in the Asia-Pacific region are diverse, collaborative practice
strategies must be considered according to local needs and challenges. In
some regions, this may mean that collaborative, team-based approaches to
care are driven by efforts to promote patient safety (Borrill and West, 2002),
maximize limited health resources, move care from acute to primary care
settings or encourage greater integrated working (Ham, 2008). Along with
rapid informatics & technology advancement, innovations in collaborative
health practicecould be compiledregardless of distance and time. Therefore,
participation from well-established digital community's developer is expected
to be able to accelerate unprecedented healthinnovation development
around interprofessional communities in Indonesia, or even more in Asia-
Pacific region.
Indonesian Young Health Professionals Society (IYHPS) in collaboration
with the Medical Faculty of Universitas Sebelas Maret (UNS) intends to
conduct the first Asia-Pacific Interprofessional Education and Collaboration
Conference (APIPEC Conference). The activity aims to lay foundation for
interprofessional education and collaboration (IPEC) development in Asia-
Pacific region by strengthening stakeholders engagement through
experience sharing from world experts and regional IPEC champions. This
conference will generate the blueprint and plan of action for developing
National IPEC Centre in Indonesia, guidelines to establish and develop IPE
curriculum in National and Asia-Pacific context, an IPEC research roadmap
and community of Asia-Pacific researcher, guideline and roadmap of
2|1st APIPEC Conference |Surakarta, 13 -15 October 2017
Interprofessional Continuing Professional Development (CPD) courses and
catalogue of innovative programs based on patient-centred collaborative care
service in primary to tertiary care setting.Jointly, for the first time, at least
more than seven health-related professionals would be involved in
pioneering of establishment of Asia-Pacific IPEC network.
2. Keynote lectures
Keynote lecture will be conducted by convening global and national
experts and stakeholders.There will be ten keynote lectures delivered
sequentially with detailed topics as following:
3. Workshops
The workshop is divided into four tracks based on the delivered themes
and they are delivered simultaneously. The themes are : developing IPE in
curriculum (Track A), research of IPE and IPC (Track B), IPE in CPD (Track
C), and innovating collaboration into practice (Track D). Each session will
start with introductory presentation, followed by working group by
participants in groups of 10.
Expected participants of the workshop for each track are IPE and CP
champions in the region. Technically the workshop will be led by
facilitatorswhich are the international experts in each theme. Initially, the
facilitator will gain initial perspective from participant with case studies,
previous experiences or existing conceptual frame work for each theme.
Thereafter, the core substantial team will present the draft of the targeted
outputs for each theme. The participants will work in group discissions to
review and provide the feedback of the draft. Finally, all of the feedbacks
will be presented and the final consensus of the outputs will be stipulated
in each workshops track.
4. Short Communication
The short communication session is divided into four tract which
delivered simultaneously. In the session, 8 accepted abstract per topic will
be given 10 minutes time to present their work regarding the relevant
topics.The topics to be engaged in the short communication sessions are:
1) The state of IPEC development in Asia-Pacific Region
2) Interprofessional Research in Asia Pacific Region
