The Power of Music: Innovations in care is an international conference bringing together community members who are interested in music and care. This educational and inspirational conference identifies and integrates common themes and issues using music across the care spectrum and highlights the social implications of music in care.
We are a partnership made up of various bodies and organizations with a shared interest.
Presenters are experts in their field either through academic training, clinical or life experience. Participants include allied healthcare providers, family and volunteer caregivers, care receivers, musicians, faith-based and community agencies, students and the community-at-large.
This is a compressed, three day conference. Each day there will be three components for you to experience.
Once you have registered you will receive an e
mail notification from "Eventbrite".
Instructions will follow closer to the conference date on

The conference will run for three consecutive hours
each day depending on your time zone.
