2023 WA Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Sector Conference
Registrations for the 2023 Conference have now closed. We look forward to welcoming you back in 2024! Please check www.ahcwa.org for updates regarding the 2024 Conference.
Since 2008, the Aboriginal Health Council of WA (AHCWA) has hosted the WA Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Sector Conference.
This key event on the Sector calendar provides an important platform for delegates to collaborate on challenges, share learnings, celebrate successes, showcase new technologies, products, service and ideas to improve the health and wellbeing of Aboriginal people in Western Australia.
In 2023, the State Sector Conference will be held on Wednesday 29 March and Thursday 30 March and the Youth Conference on Monday 27 March, at the Esplanade Hotel in Fremantle, Western Australia.
The theme of the 2023 Conference is: “Our Future, Our Way” - We are the Leaders for our Communities".
An exhibition is a key feature at both the Sector Conference and the Youth Conference.
Both Conferences rely on funding from Commonwealth and State Governments and the generous support of our Conference sponsors and exhibitors.
We look forward to seeing you to the 2023 Conference.
