Each year there is a general theme, and this year it is 'New problems, new solutions'. We aim to focus on recent developments, particularly in investigations, therapy and relevant policy. It is a time of great change for community child health, and although this sometimes seems to be about organisations and management, this conference offers the opportunity to see beyond this to the changes for children, parents, doctors, and nurses which will revolutionise research, investigation and management of many of the illnesses, disabilities, and public health problems we all currently face.

For Your Heart's Sake is a General Public Awareness Initiative held in parallel with the World Congress of Cardiology 2006 in the central located public venue, Plaça Catalunya, in the heart of Barcelona.
For Your Heart's Sake adds an important public perspective and orientation to the European calendar of heart diseases managements and prevention. The event is intended to create public awareness of heart disease and support public health initiatives in the fight against it.
