3. Migration, cultural capital, and settlement services literacy
4. Sustainable Development Goals and Health Equity, and

The five themes highlight current needs and advances in migration and health equity across the globe. Therefore, we welcome submissions from:

• Any other interested professional bodies and/or individuals
Data can either be presented as a research paper; a policy development, implementation, and analysis; innovative practices; guidelines development, implementability, and uptake; lived experiences; or culturally competent systems.
Conference presentations will incorporate traditional and non-traditional formats to include oral presentations, poster presentations, community conversations (Q and A format), community advocacy and lived experiences, art exhibitions, and symposia. This approach will ensure cultural diversity and inclusion and cater for a wide range of stakeholders.
Abstract submissions will remain open until 10 June.
