First annual Indigenous Skin Spectrum Global Summit to be held in April



Dermatologists and other health care practitioners working with Indigenous populations are invited to the first-ever Indigenous Skin Spectrum Global Summit on April 5, 2025, in Montreal.


The Indigenous Skin Spectrum Global Summit is an expansion of the successful Indigenous Skin Spectrum Summit dermatology conference, which was held for the fourth year in 2024.


The new Global Summit is designed to highlight the unique dermatologic challenges facing Indigenous populations across the world and to share expert knowledge on how physicians can support equitable health for these populations.


Presentations at the Global Summit will provide updated information on:


  • Social determinants of health

  • Supporting rural and remote communities

  • Diagnosis and treatment of the most common conditions faced by Indigenous patients worldwide

  • The latest therapies for the management of these conditions


Summit chair Dr. Rachel Asiniwasis (Regina) leads a world-renowned faculty, including Dr. Gary Sibbald (Mississauga, Ont.), Dr. Jaggi Rao (Edmonton), Dr. Ivan Litvinov (Montreal), Dr. Carolyn Jack (Montreal), Dr. Rachel Pugh (Australia), Dr. Carsten Sauer Mikkelson (Denmark), Dr. Monique Mackenzie (New Zealand), Dr. Anna Chacon (Florida), and Dr. Dana Slape (Australia).
