The Organising Committee invites all interested individuals to submit abstracts for the

2nd Developmental Paediatrics Conference 2026

We invite research-based or quality improvement-based abstracts from Healthcare Professionals (Doctors, Nurses, Allied Health Professionals), Early Childhood and Early Intervention Professionals and Students in the field of Developmental Paediatrics. This includes topics related to neurodevelopmental disorders, developmental delays, behavioural and emotional disorders, any sensory disorders or syndromes in children.

The theme for the conference is “From awareness to action: Fostering resilience and positive mental health in children and families”. Abstract submissions are encouraged to highlight research, clinical practice or programme initiatives that translate awareness into actionable strategies to support child and family mental health. Submissions are also encouraged to address the promotion of resilience and positive mental health through trauma-informed care, neurodiversity-affirming approaches, caregiver and school-based mental health supports across developmental stages and early intervention settings.

Accepted abstracts will be selected for either oral or poster presentations. There will be awards for Best Poster and Best Oral Presentation.
