The Consortium will be conducting a  Regional Conference for Health and Health-related completed studies in the Graduate and Undergraduate levels on May 22, 2014 at the ATI Hall in Benguet State University. The regional conference has two objectives:

1. To provide an interactive space for graduate and undergraduate students to present their completed studies (thesis, dissertation); and

2. To serve as  venue for dissemination to the public,  research- based understanding and solution to health and well-being problems.  Later, these will be uploaded to the HERDIN as part of the region’s data base and information system.

 In this regard, may we call for submission of three completed studies from your institution either all coming from your graduate school, undergraduate, or a combination?  Themes may cover health, health-related, environmental health, food and health, IKSP and well-being, agriculture and health, among others.  In all, we will be getting two (2) completed researches and one (1) poster from each of the participating institutions.  Researches that have undergone ethical clearance will have chances of participating in  in the 8^th Philippine National Health Research System Week celebration in August 2014. The guidelines can be downloaded from the download section of our website.
