Welcome
It is with great pleasure that we invite you to The International Conference on Communication in Healthcare (ICCH) 2026, to be held in Belfast, Northern Ireland from 14th – 18th September 2026 with support and partnership from our sister organisation, the North American-based Academy for Communication in Healthcare.
This event brings together a multi-disciplinary community of researchers, teachers, practitioners, students and policy makers from around the globe focusing on the mission to optimize patient outcomes and revolutionize health care through research and teaching on healthcare communication and patient-health professional relationships. It provides a unique opportunity for the international and interactive exchange of ideas, approaches, and outcomes of education, research and policy activities across individuals and institutions.
We look forward to seeing you at ICCH 2026!
