Research can help us understand not only what works, but how we turn good ideas into meaningful change for people and communities.

At ICIC27 in Tallinn, we want to hear about research and practice that is helping move integrated care from ambition to impact.

Whether your work explores implementation, service coordination, digital health, population health, co-production, workforce, community partnerships or person-centred care, your learning could contribute to the ICIC27 programme.

There is now just over one week left to submit.

What happens when integrated care starts not with services, but with people, relationships and communities?

Join the final webinar in IFICโ€™s Community-Enabled Integrated Care SIG Webinar Series, bringing together practical experience from Canada and Argentina.

The session will explore community participation, influence and shared decision-making, and consider what helps build meaningful and sustainable relationships between communities and formal organisations.

IFICโ€™s publication, "System Governance as a Pillar of Integrated Care," argues that successful integration depends on more than policies and organisational charts.

It highlights the importance of trust, shared leadership, clear accountability and relationships that allow organisations and professionals to work together effectively.

๐Ÿ“ข There is still time to submit your research, practice experience and learning to ICIC27 โ€“ the 27th International Conference on Integrated Care, taking place in Tallinn, Estonia, from 10โ€“12 May 2027.

We want to hear from researchers, practitioners, policymakers, health and care professionals, community partners and people with lived experience who are working to improve integrated care in practice.

If your work is helping to improve outcomes through better coordination, use of data, population health approaches or more person-centred care, ICIC27 is an opportunity to share what you are learning with an international community.

IFICโ€™s Virtual Learning Labs are designed to give participants time to engage with an approach, reflect on their own experience and consider how to use the learning in practice.

On 10 November, our first Learning Lab with Southcentral Foundation/Nuka will explore authentic relationships as a foundation for integrated care.

Participants will work directly with Nuka faculty and in small facilitated Learning Circles to explore how relational skills can strengthen teamwork, communication and partnership working.

What does effective coordination of care look like in practice? And how can we ensure that care feels connected and seamless for the people receiving it?

Join us this Thursday for the next discussion in IFIC's Nine Pillars of Integrated Care Forum Series, as we explore the challenges, assumptions and practical approaches to strengthening coordination across health and care services.

Facilitated by Fiona Lyne, with Mandy Andrew, Miquel Mas, Dr PJ Harnett and Vanessa Ribeiro, this interactive session will bring together different perspectives on what it takes to make coordination work in practice.

๐Ÿ“ข New research in the International Journal of Integrated Care explores how mental healthcare and municipal social services can work together more effectively for people with severe mental illness.

In their new study, Kleijburg et al. examine the integration of Flexible Assertive Community Treatment teams with District Social Services in the Netherlands.

Team members reported improvements in access, continuity of care, case-finding, efficiency and collaboration. The study also highlights the importance of strong leadership, shared ownership, equality and professional expertise when implementing integrated multi-agency care.
