Dear Colleagues,

We are thrilled to welcome our honorable guests, distinguished speakers, enthusiastic delegates, and loyal partners who will attend the 2nd Pan Arab Women Physicians Association Conference and the 1st Kuwaiti Women Physicians Conference in Kuwait on December 12th and 14th, 2024.

The Conference presents an unparalleled opportunity for women physicians from different disciplines to meet their peers from the MENA Region, as it occurs in conjunction with the 2nd Pan Arab Women Physicians Association (PAWPA) Conference. The conferences serve as a hub to cultivate, empower, and connect women in the healthcare sector across the globe and promote the exchange of expertise through their diverse range of lectures, debates, panel discussions, workshops, and networking opportunities.

It is paramount to acknowledge that in evolving healthcare systems, women face unique challenges that impact the sustainability of the healthcare workforce worldwide. Therefore, these conferences were designed to address and highlight potential improvement and growth areas.

In the presidential session “Women in Medicine: Challenges and Opportunities,” a panel of regional and international experts will discuss essential topics such as workforce sustainability, financial growth, family planning, and work environment to generate practical recommendations that support the advancement of women physicians in our region.
