ABOUT THE CONFERENCE
We are thrilled to invite you to the 2025 Joint Conference of the 8
th International Conference on Medical Education (ICME) and the 18
th International Medical Education Conference (IMEC). The conference theme, "Globalisation of Health Professions Education: Strategies, Stakeholders, and Sustainability," promises an enriching experience for all participants. The globalisation of education has transformed the exchange of ideas, innovations, and culture through mobility programs, global perspectives in curricula, and cross-border research collaboration. The conference theme highlights vibrant and diverse learning environments that nurture clinical and cultural competence.
