The IPCRG welcomes abstracts from academics and all members of the multi-professional team, including patients and patient representatives, so long as it is relevant to this global respiratory community. Topics should be related to the prevention, diagnosis, management and palliation of communicable and non-communicable respiratory diseases, and respiratory risk factors in family medicine, primary care centres, outpatient clinics and other settings where diagnosis and prescription is carried out. <strong>Abstracts are a maximum of 300 words and may include one figure or table<\/strong>. The call for abstracts will open on <strong>early\u00a0October 2025<\/strong>.<\/p><p>For 2026 we are particularly encouraging abstracts which include real world evidence and good practice examples, and those addressing our conference theme of listening deeply. Following a very successful first session at our 8th Scientific Meeting in Bra\u0219ov, Romania, we are also accepting abstracts for <strong>Creative Enquiry Presentations<\/strong>, which express lived experience through creative or artistic media to help think creatively. This can be proposed in all 3 abstract categories. Simply tick the \u2018creative communications\u2019 box if you wish to present in this format. Examples of this sort of presentation can be found <a href=\"https:\/\/sapc.ac.uk\/article\/2018-creative-enquiry-sapc-asm-london\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>.<\/p><p>Specifically for Tunis, we are encouraging abstracts on environmental issues such as dust, heat, air pollution, tobacco use and vaping prevention and cessation, planetary health, health equity, adolescent health and the use of social media and AI for health information. This aligns with IPCRG\u2019s partnership in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ipcrg.org\/freshair4life\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">FRESHAIR4Life<\/a>\u00a0project funded by Horizon Europe and UKRI, and compliments our own strategic objectives.
