Tuesday 10 March 2026 | 11:00-12:00 \u00a0<\/p> Moving care and treatment closer to the patient\u2019s home is high on the agenda across health systems worldwide. This shift promises greater patient safety, quality of care, and sustainability \u2013 but it requires rethinking how hospitals, primary care, municipalities, social services, and patients themselves work together. True cross-sector partnerships are essential to break down silos, align goals, and ensure continuity of care. In this session, we will explore real-world examples and practical strategies for creating these partnerships. How do we establish trust between sectors with different funding streams, professional cultures, and priorities? What models of integrated care show evidence of success? And how can patients and families be included as equal partners in designing new care pathways? \u00a0<\/p> Part 1 – Leading collaborative change: principles of consensus decision making for healthcare quality improvement<\/strong><\/span><\/p> This workshop will introduce principles of consensus decision making as a tool for healthcare quality improvement (QI). The consensus decision making framework emphasizes a collaborative approach, where all stakeholders actively shape decisions. It was developed by grassroots organizations and adapted in the context of a leadership development group, bringing together individuals with a wide range of experiences with race, class, and healthcare. Through interactive exercises, participants will learn to apply the framework in real-world healthcare settings, where the aim is to engage diverse voices, resolve conflicts, and work toward a shared goal of improving healthcare quality. Attendees will leave with practical skills for fostering collaborative decision making in their own organizations, improving team engagement, project outcomes, and leadership effectiveness.<\/span><\/p> After this session, participants will be able to:<\/span><\/p> Michelle Hamline<\/strong><\/a> University of California Davis; USA \u00a0<\/p> Part 2 – Acting as one system: a shared journey for the benefit of citizens<\/strong><\/span><\/p> Our societal systems are built in parts, but people live in the whole. To meet the needs of the future, we need shared perspectives on what we solve together, what benefits from local adaptation, and how we maintain coherence across the system. Welcome to an inspiring presentation where we share experiences from a dialogue journey across the region \u2013 a journey where politicians, managers, and citizens came together across organizational boundaries to explore the question: What is best for Esther?

The journey has led to new insights, strengthened relationships, and a deeper sense of system awareness. These insights are now taking shape in strategic documents and shared declarations of intent, clarifying how we align our resources around citizens\u2019 needs \u2013 and how, through collective action, we take responsibility and act as one system. Susan Hannah will reflect on the J\u00f6nk\u00f6ping journey from the perspective as Strategic Partner with IHI.
