World Congress of Cardiology

From patients to population

The World Congress of Cardiology is the official congress of the World Heart Federation and is held every two years.

Through the World Congress of Cardiology, the World Heart Federation offers an international stage for the latest developments in science and public outreach in the field of cardiovascular health.

The World Congress of Cardiology places emphasis on the complementary nature of science and public outreach and strives to spread the message that through individual, community and patient care interventions, the growing epidemic of cardiovascular disease in developing countries can be prevented--hence, from patients to population.

The aims of the World Congress of Cardiology are to:

  • Share scientific research results and public outreach techniques with low- and middle-income countries
  • Reach the maximum number of healthcare providers by integrating national and regional congresses
  • Focus on prevention, diagnosis and treatment
  • Encourage interaction between physicians, patients, policy-makers and the public


The next World Congress of Cardiology will be held in Buenos Aires, Argentina from 18-21 May 2008

The World Congress of Cardiology 2010 will take place in Beijing, China.
