Did you know?

The Australasian Interprofessional Practice and Education Network (AIPPEN) has existed for well over a decade. A group of co-founders wrote an article about AIPPEN’s shared vision for collaborative interprofessional practice in 2007, published in Focus on Health Professional Education (Vol.8, Issue 3) which can be found at: https://www.anzahpe.org/AIPPEN

With the revitalisation of AIPPEN at the 2019 ANZAHPE conference in Canberra, comes the opportunity to build stronger interprofessional collaborative connections. Formed at the ANZAHPE conference last year, the AIPPEN Steering Committee aims to: 

•     create a community of practice around interprofessionalism;
•     establish a repository for the sharing of resources;
  
•     lead interprofessional activities within ANZAHPE; and
  
•     link with Interprofessional Global (https://interprofessional.global/).
