Dear Colleague
Apologies for cross posting. I hope that this conference will be of interest.
Devolution and Divergence: Health and Social Care in the UK
30th Nov - 1st Dec 2009, City Hall, Cardiff
www.devolutionconference.co.uk
A unique two day conference examining the impact of devolution on health and
social care policy, education and practice
In the ten years since devolution there has been considerable divergence in
policy and practice amongst the four countries of the United Kingdom, some
of it by design, some of it apparently by accident. This conference provides
an opportunity to assess where we are up to, where we are going and what are
the implications for the future of health and social care and the education
of new generations of health and social care professionals.
The School of Healthcare Studies, and the School of Nursing and Midwifery
Studies at Cardiff University are delighted to announce an impressive
speaker line up including Dr Scott Greer from the University of Michigan and
University College, London – a leading authority on post-devolution
development of health policy; Professor Sir Neil Douglas - President of the
Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh and Chair of the Academy of Medical
Royal Colleges, an authority on postgraduate medical education; Professor
Jonathon Gray, Cardiff University and Public Health Wales – with new
responsibility for driving forward evidence-based research in healthcare
improvement, Dr Jennifer Dixon, Director of the Nuffield Trust who will
speak about her own and Trust supported research on the impact of devolution
on health policy and Professor Gareth Williams, Cardiff University School of
Social Sciences who has researched widely on health and social policy and
social inequality in the UK.
