Join us for the Namaste Care International Conference 2025, where thought leaders, care innovators, and professionals from around the world will come together to share ideas, research, and best practices in end-of-life and dementia care.

Date: Wednesday 24th & Thursday 25th, September 2025

Time: 10:00h – 16:00h

Venue: University College Cork & Online

This two-day working conference will explore meaningful care through two unique daily themes:

Day 1 – Care, Connection & Culture

Conversations around identity, belonging, emotional presence, and the human connection at the heart of care.

Day 2 – Skills, Practice & Purpose

Hands-on tools, real-world research, and practical approaches to delivering compassionate care with impact.

Purchasing a ticket will give you admission for both days of the event, allowing you to access all that we have to offer during the conference.

Led by Professor Joyce Simard, NCI Founder and Honorary Chair, and a host of speakers and practitioners from 14+ countries, this is a conference grounded in community, inclusion, and the power of presence.

Whether you're a care or nursing manager, academic, policymaker, or front-line caregiver, you’ll leave with inspiration, tools, and a renewed sense of purpose.
