The Colleges of Medicine of South Africa’s 70th Anniversary Conference marks a significant milestone in celebrating seven decades of progress, collaboration, and impact. Taking place at the Future Africa Campus in Pretoria from 19 to 21 August 2025, the seminars will convene government officials, academic leaders, healthcare professionals, civil society stakeholders, and community representatives to reflect on the country’s journey and chart a path for the future.

Through a dynamic programme of keynote addresses, expert panel discussions, and interactive workshops, participants will critically engage with the structural barriers, untapped opportunities, and strategic pathways that can ensure specialist medicine is accessible to all—both within South Africa and globally. Planned highlights include keynote addresses by prominent provincial and national leaders, intergenerational dialogue sessions, and the showcasing of cross-continental initiatives.  Ultimately, the 70th Anniversary Conference will not only honour the legacy of the Colleges of Medicine of South Africa but will also reaffirm its commitment to inclusive growth, collaborative excellence, and sustainable impact for the decades ahead.
