• Upheld the strong reputation forged by past APNA National Conferences of engaging a broad audience of urban, community, regional, rural, and international health professionals working across all areas of primary health care;

• Provided an opportunity for delegates to network and share ideas, experiences and initiatives with their colleagues, industry experts, other health professionals, researchers and representatives from leading Australian health organisations.
