WAEH at Londrina Unity Health

July 9, 2026

The World Association of Eye Hospitals (WAEH) has been invited to contribute to Londrina Unity Health 2026, one of the largest private healthcare management conferences in Southern Brazil, taking place on 13–14 August 2026 in Londrina, Brazil.

Our Global Lead, Maaike van Zuilen, will deliver a presentation on the WAEH, highlighting how international collaboration between eye hospitals helps accelerate innovation, strengthen leadership, and improve the quality of eye care worldwide.

The invitation was extended by Hoftalon Eye Hospital, one of the WAEH’s valued members and one of the hosts of the 20th Annual WAEH Meeting in Brazil this November. The conference provides an excellent opportunity to introduce the WAEH network to a broader audience of healthcare leaders and to strengthen relationships with Brazilian partners ahead of the Annual Meeting.

We look forward to connecting with colleagues in Londrina and continuing to build a strong global community of eye hospitals dedicated to learning, sharing and improving together.
