In the meantime, this issue will showcase the speakers and projectsthat will be profled at the workshop. Although these brie discriptions o the speakers and projects do not do them any justice, it isintended to provide everyone with a general idea o the great discussions that are to come - It’s really an appetizer o sorts.Tis year we have been very ortunate to have a wonderul mix o local, national, and international speakers rom both the public andprivate sector to share some insights on the new developments in engaging health consumers and patients. Tis panel o speakers willbe ollowed by a second panel o presentations showcasing three prominent projects exempliying EKIC’s eort in expanding thescope and reach o its projects. Te workshop will be concluded with a acilitated discussion to collectively identiy how we can moveorward in promoting public engagement.Registration is still open or the event; but the remaining space is limited.
