The America Nepal Medical Foundation will hold its Eleventh Annual Conference in Toronto, Ontario, Canada on June 22nd, 23rd & 24th, 2007. The theme of this year's conference is Advancement of Healthcare in Nepal through Collaboration. This year's hosts are Ian Macmillan MD, Edith Bacon, and the Canada Nepal Medical Society (CNMS). We are also proud to announce that CNMS, our newly formed sister organization in Canada, will also have their first annual conference at the same venue.
This is a unique opportunity to network with people working to improve medical education and health care delivery in Nepal. The speakers will be from a selected group of people who have worked extensively in Nepal. They will bring us up-to-date on their work and challenges facing current conditions there. The general meeting will be followed by the ANMF business meeting where the board members and general members meet, exchange ideas and make plans to effectively uplift the health conditions in Nepal. Join the ANMF Board of Directors and Members as they plan upcoming projects and discuss long term goals.
