We will elaborate on this theme with cohesive sets of plenary presentations by top experts in the field of pediatrics from all over the globe allowing us to learn about the latest global advances in child health in a vibrant atmosphere.

We are indeed in a time of great challenges when it comes to children physical and mental health, and fortunately we are also in a time of great innovation when it comes to new research and practices, we present what every health care professional dealing with children should know, this comes from our commitment that children’s physical and mental health is priority as our children are the most important resources for the future.

We welcome all pediatricians, pediatric subspeciality doctors, child psychiatrists’ general practitioners, family medicine doctors, medical students, child psychologists, child physiotherapists, dieticians, pharmacists, nurses, therapists and all health care providers dealing with children to come and enjoy research and meet and interact with health care providers from all over the globe.

The program has already shaped up to be excellent, and the networking opportunities will be indeed outstanding. The Congress being held in Dubai, the most futuristic city in the world, the hub of innovation and integration, will add to the pleasure of the meeting and will provide lasting memories for our visitors.
