Join us in Bloemfontein for SAAHE 2025!
In a world reshaped by the aftermath of COVID-19 and the rapid evolution of AI, finding and redefining our identities as health professions educators is both a challenge and an opportunity. The Central Chapter invites you to join the 23rd annual Southern African Association of Health Educationalists (SAAHE) conference from the 1– 4 July, 2025. This year’s theme, “Revive, Renew, Reconnect: Redefining Identity with SAAHE 2025,” calls us to pause, reflect, and reimagine our roles in health professions education in a world that demands adaptability, innovation, and renewed purpose.
The conference will provide a dynamic space for educators, researchers, healthcare professionals, and students to exchange ideas, showcase innovations, and strengthen interprofessional collaboration. A rich program of keynote speeches, interactive sessions, and engaging discussions will foster conversations that inspire meaningful transformation in teaching, learning, and practice.
Set in the heart of the Free State, Bloemfontein offers a unique blend of history, culture, and natural beauty. From its warm hospitality to its rich heritage, the city is the perfect place for creating meaningful connections and memorable experiences.
Aligned with the spirit of renewal, SAAHE 2025 will support green initiatives and introduce a pay-it-forward project, underscoring our commitment to sustainability and community impact. No matter where you’re from—South Africa, the rest of Africa, or beyond—we’re excited to welcome you to this vibrant conversation and invite you to contribute to our shared mission of advancing teaching, learning, and practice in health sciences.
Mark your calendar for 1st to 4th July 2025, and get ready to revive, renew, and reconnect in Bloemfontein. Let’s grow together at SAAHE 2025!
Warmest regards
Elzana Kempen
