In Sickness & In Health

During a conference in Helsinki in 2000, a number of participants realized they shared a common interest, approach and concern about Sickness and Health in the 21st Century. From this initial encounter and subsequent discussions a concept for an International Conference dealing with the critical scholarship of power, practice and ethics in health care - the In Sickness and In Health (ISIH) Conference was born. From a handful of like-minded individuals, and following a number of international conferences, the community has grown to now include hundreds of individuals from around the world who share this interest and concern.

The ISIH community is open to scholars and health professionals from around the world who share an interest in our discussions and concerns for power, practice and ethics in health care.  Feel free to participate by joining our community, submitting an abstract for presentation at a future conference or attending a conference.
