DEAR COLLEAGUES

We look forward to hosting you at the Tripartite Colorectal Meeting, 22 - 24 February 2022.

As many will be aware New Zealand continues to be challenged by COVID-19 and currently cannot provide certainty around when border restrictions will be lifted.

As a result, the organising committee have agreed that our best course of action now is to move the Tripartite 2022 meeting to a fully virtual format.

As the pre-eminent event for Global leaders in Colorectal surgery, the 2022 meeting will continue to deliver the comprehensive programme that has been planned. 

Our Meeting theme, Looking Forward, Looking After – Mā Muri Ki Mua, reminds us that despite the challenges we are facing around the world we need to embrace the new while learning from the past, and keeping patient care central to our vision.

The programme includes a world class line up of speakers at the forefront of colorectal surgery and stomal therapy, with a thought provoking and challenging scientific programme. Please review the programme here.

We encourage your participation and attendance and look forward to connecting with you online in February 2022.
