The official app to help you get the most out of the 47th Union World Conference on Lung Health.
The Union World Conference on Lung Health is the world’s largest gathering of clinicians and public health workers, health programme managers, policymakers, researchers and advocates working to end the suffering caused by lung disease, with a focus specifically on the challenges faced by the low- and middle-income countries. Of the ten million people who die each year from lung diseases, some 80 per cent live in these resource-limited countries.
Our theme this year, Confronting Resistance: Fundamentals to Innovations, addresses a number of critical areas for discussion, including the growing problem of resistance to existing TB drugs, one of the most important challenges facing us today, while also reflecting our global tobacco control work, which requires coordinated efforts to confront resistance from the powerful tobacco industry and to introduce the innovative policies needed to de-normalise and reduce tobacco use.
