The HEAL National Research Network is hosting its annual conference from 3-6 November 2025, building on the resounding success of its first four conferences in 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024. 

#HEAL2025, with the theme of ‘Weaving Diverse Knowledges into Climate Action for Better Health’,will provide a dynamic, inclusive and decentralised platform for diverse research, policy and practice communities within the HEAL Network to come together sharing knowledge, evidence and ideas. 

Over four days, HEAL 2025 will deliver opportunities to discuss the leading health, climate and environmental challenges we face in Australia, the Asia-Pacific region and internationally. We will discuss how the HEAL Network is addressing these challenges, shaping innovative research to support Australia’s first National Health and Climate Strategy and the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals, and helping to translate research into responsible policy practices such as more sustainable healthcare and climate-resilient communities. 

In line with HEAL’s core commitment to supporting and elevating Australian First Nations and grassroot leadership and knowledges, we will be highlighting inspiring case studies from communities who are on the frontlines of climate and environmental change. 

The hybrid conference will be delivered online nationally and internationally, and at in-person at eight regional nodes across Australia, providing multiple avenues for delegates to participate and connect with each other.

Please register to attend (no registration fees).
