Complete Details

The International Summer School on Integrated Care (ISSIC26) is a flagship residential program hosted by the International Foundation for Integrated Care (IFIC). Set in the historic city of Oxford, this immersive five-day event is designed for global leaders, managers, and practitioners who are serious about transforming health and care systems. Unlike standard conferences, the Summer School offers a deep-dive educational experience that balances theoretical frameworks with practical, real-world application.

The 2026 curriculum is centered around IFIC’s "9 Pillars of Integrated Care," providing participants with a robust toolkit to diagnose their local health systems and design sustainable interventions. Throughout the week, attendees will move from abstract concepts to concrete action plans. A unique highlight of the program is the "Integrated Care System Study Visit," where the cohort travels to a mature integrated care site to observe multidisciplinary teams, shared governance, and community-centered care in active practice.

The program is highly interactive, featuring workshops on population health management, co-production with patients, and the use of digital technology to bridge care gaps. Participants are encouraged to bring a specific "case study" or challenge from their own professional context. By working directly on these projects with guidance from an internationally recognized faculty, attendees leave Oxford with a customized "Theory of Change" and a strategic narrative to present to their home organizations.

Beyond the classroom, ISSIC26 offers an unparalleled networking environment. The cohort-based model ensures that participants build lasting relationships with peers from diverse international backgrounds, fostering a global community of practice. The event is fully CPD-accredited, offering 40.5 hours of professional development, making it an essential milestone for those leading system-wide change in the health and social care sectors.
