Event cancelled

The College has received notification from the Te Pae Christchurch Convention Centre, advising that due to the current COVID-19 lockdown in New Zealand, the centre has experienced significant delays and, therefore, will not be open in time for our ASM. Given the pandemic’s uncertain and rapidly evolving nature and the inherent risks, a decision has been made to cancel 2021 ASM.

Nau mai, haere mai ki Ōtautahi! (Welcome to Christchurch!)

Join us at this year’s Annual Scientific Meeting in Ōtautahi, Christchurch, Aotearoa New Zealand, the country whose COVID-19 response is recognised by the World Health Organization as one of the strongest on the planet, in the city that birthed HealthPathways and whose integrated health care system is internationally recognised. Nestled between the Pacific coastline and the spectacular Southern Alps, the garden city of Christchurch has risen from the rubble of both natural and man-made disasters to emerge a strong and innovative global metropolis.

This conference is changing the way we do ACEM Annual Scientific Meetings with highly interactive sessions taking place in-person and online for those that can’t make it to New Zealand. This includes evolving clinical scenarios led by diverse panels of clinical experts, and quick fire presentations aimed to give delegates greater access to research updates from our international emergency medicine community. In addition, enjoy a fine selection of teamwork and wellness activities, social engagements and lectures from passionate leaders of the non-medical world.

Check out all the stunning scenery Christchurch has to offer with walks along the crater rim, strolls around the Botanic Gardens, punting on the Avon or relaxing on our beautiful uncrowded beaches. Tickle the taste buds with gourmet cooking classes, wine tasting or craft beer tasting. Stoke the adrenaline at Christchurch Adventure Park with mountain biking or rogaining.

Join us for education, exploration and inspiration.

Come to Christchurch for an unforgettable adventure.

mā te wā (See you soon!)
