Local Identity, Global Perspective: Review of the International Academy’s 6th World Congress and Exhibition

The 6th Design & Health World Congress & Exhibition, which took place in Singapore in 2009, had the goal of spreading knowledge and fostering dialogue between researchers and practitioners in the interdisciplinary field of healthcare design.

The gathering of almost 400 delegates, including architects, designers, health administrators, economists, psychologists, clinicians, nurses, health scientists and government officials from more than 30 countries, to exchange research, design solutions, stimulate discussion for new ideas and find and create business opportunities, demonstrated clearly how healthcare must now be considered within a global context.
