The debate has become one of the regular highlights of Diversity in Health. It is an opportunity for national and international speakers to address one of the key themes of the conference, in an entertaining and competitive environment.
In 2010 the conference will debate Multicultural Health: Myth or Reality?
Every DIH conference is dedicated to exploring the nuances of diversity in health - how it is represented in practice, in policy and advocacy. But what if there is no such thing as ‘Multicultural Health'? What if multicultural health is just the bandwagon for the politically correct with a soft spot for foreigners?
We search for the truth through humour, wit and persuasive argument.
