SPANZA Annual Scientific Meeting (2023)

We would like to invite you to Ōtautahi Christchurch for the 2023 SPANZA Annual Scientific Meeting.    

The conference will be held in our brand new facility Te Pae on the banks of the Avon River in the city centre.   

Our international invited speakers from North America along with Australian and NZ based speakers will provide a exciting program that will add to your knowledge, challenge your preconceptions and inspire you to.optimise your provision of anaesthesia to children. The program has been carefully designed to cater for those working in tertiary paediatric centres as a well as generalists who care for children. The engaging plenary sessions will be complemented by workshops on a variety of topics such as crisis management and perioperative anxiety that will fulfil CPD requirements.  

Ōtautahi Christchurch is surrounded by the Southern Alps, the Canterbury Plains and the Pacific Ocean. The Port Hills trails, Christchurch Adventure Park and local surf beaches provide plenty of thrills for active travellers while the Waipara wine country and He Puna Taimoana hot pools, and the Riverside Market in the revitalised city centre provide a more relaxed experience. Whatever your interests Christchurch has something for you.  

We look forward to seeing you in Ōtautahi Christchurch.
