Wonca Africa to meet in Zimbabwe

The College of Primary Care Physicians of Zimbabwe is delighted to have been selected to organise the 2012 Wonca Africa conference and is looking forward to hosting delegates from all over Africa and from around the world. The College is an energetic organisation which is making great strides in improving the primary health care in independent Zimbabwe.

The theme of the conference is Roles and Responsibilities of an African Family Physician. We enthusiastically look forward to learning from colleagues in other lands and sharing our experience of the problems encountered by doctors in Africa.

The conference will be staged at the majestic Victoria Falls which stands unequalled as a world heritage site with facilities of highest standard. Delegates are assured of a long to be remembered experience, including the charity golf day to be held on 19 November at the elephant Hills golf club.

Dr Muriel Selma Fallala, conference convenor
