Viaa International Week '1+1=3: The Added Value of Interprofessional Work'

Viaa is cordially inviting you to our inspiring International Week on March 27-29, 2023! The theme of this week will be: ‘1+1=3: The Added Value of Interprofessional Work’.

We are looking forward to welcoming you at Viaa in the Spring of 2023. Please register here. Registration is open until January 31, 2023.

As Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) we prepare young professionals for their role in society. In the Dutch context, society is in transition. The roles of government, professional caregivers, educators and health care workers are constantly changing. Volunteers, caregivers and society in itself get more responsibility.

How do HEIs prepare future professionals for their shifting role in society? How can we cooperate between professional fields to fully educate our students? Answering these questions from the multiple backgrounds of international professionals creates new and deepened perspectives on profession and society as well as on higher education.

Keynotes Dr. Vincent de Waal (Utrecht University of Applied Sciences) and Elly van den Berg (Ede Christian University of Applied Sciences) will be contributing on the theme of the conference. In addition to this, several Viaa colleagues that specialise in Interprofessional Work will be giving workshops.

Next to this, the programme will contain field visits and networking sessions. Would you like to contribute to the programme in any way? Please let us know in the registration form.
