Every other year physicians, researchers, nurses, psychologists, social workers, pharmacists, music therapists, art therapists, physical therapists, spiritual care workers, volunteers and many others gather from around the globe to learn from and with each other for the betterment of palliative care. Please join us in celebrating and enriching palliative care around the world.

After a successful return in 2022, the McGill International Palliative Care Congress will be held at the Palais des Congrès de Montréal, from October 15-18, 2024.

This major gathering of healthcare professionals and palliative care specialists from around the world has been hosted in Montréal every second year since 1976. The McGill International Congress offers a unique conference experience: galvanizing plenary speakers; in-depth experiential workshops; seminars covering all aspects of end-of-life care, from the most current scientific developments in pain and symptom control to the large existential questions. All sessions are structured to allow ample time for dialogue, questions and thoughtful interaction. As always, the Congress will offer a welcoming, inclusive environment where the clinical sciences are intertwined with the humanities, the arts, and compassion.
