Dear SAHS Members, Colleagues, and Industry Partners, 

We are looking forward to welcoming all health care practitioners, case managers, medical aid advisors, nurses, pharmacists, primary care providers, researchers, and students from both private and public sector to The Southern African Hypertension Society Biennial Congress, 16 – 18 August 2024.

The CPD accredited scientific programme includes guideline updates, multiple clinical lectures, debates, practical advice, ethical discussions, and the latest research of current clinical interest. This year’s theme is Controlling Hypertension in Southern Africa: The New Frontier and will focus on cardiac and kidney disease, stroke, obesity, and genetics.

The SAHS Biennial Congress 2024 offers opportunities for multi-disciplinary learning, interaction, and networking among delegates, researchers, clinicians, as well as the invited international faculty members: Prof Gianfranco Parati (Italy), Prof Dike Ojji (Nigeria), Prof Albertino Damasceno (Mozambique), Prof Alta Schutte (Australia), Dr Taskeen Khan (WHO) and local key opinion leaders involved in hypertension.

We look forward to hosting you.

Yours sincerely Prof Nash Ranjith - SAHS President
