Highlights from EAPC 2019: Global Palliative Care – Shaping the future
BMC Palliative Care recently attended the 16th World Research Congress of the European Association Palliative Care (EAPC), which took place May 23rd - 25th in Berlin, Germany. This year’s meeting focused on a particular message: "Severely ill and dying patients need adequate access to an early, coordinated, and continuous palliative care in Europe and around the world." Here we touch upon some of the highlights of the congress.

I took over BMC Palliative Care as Editor just the month before the congress and have been particularly excited to network and meet clinicians, caregivers, researchers, volunteers, patient advocates, and educators in this field. After hearing so many positive things about the Palliative Care community I was enthusiastic to learn more about how palliative care fits in the current global health agenda.
