The Value of Implementation Science in Health and Social Care
November 7-8, 2024
IMPACT, the Swiss Implementation Science Network, an interdisciplinary platform for researchers and professionals, organises its first in-person conference to discuss innovations in implementation science. This year’s conference theme is: “The Value of Implementation Science in Health and Social Care”. IMPACT aims to bring together national and international scientists, health and social care providers, policy makers, funders, and organisations interested in implementation science.
Implementation science promotes the tangible integration of research findings and evidence-based interventions into policy and practice. Implementation science plays a crucial role in many fields including health, social care and environmental science. This field of research is gaining in importance in Europe and in Switzerland and is of critical value for society. It reduces research waste and facilitates the successful uptake of new evidence-based interventions, while supporting also the de-implementation of low-value care practices. Implementation science closes the gap between what we know and what we do!
Whether you are an expert or a beginner, please join our scientific community to learn and exchange about implementation science, and to take an active part in progressing this field of research in Switzerland. Join us at this very special occasion and play a part in designing the future of implementation science in Switzerland.
Innovations in implementation science will be presented by international renown experts, several Swiss studies using implementation science will be showcased, an interactive round table will allow experts and public to design the future of implementation science in Switzerland and beyond, a pre-conference workshop will provide an important learning experience to advance methodology for beginners, and ample possibilities will be provided to present your own work.
The University of Geneva in collaboration with the University of Lausanne and the other members of IMPACT look forward to welcoming you.
Join us for an unforgettable meeting !
