    (Acta Universitatis Gothoburgensis, 2025) Wallengren, Catarina; Olausson, Sepideh; Killingback, Clare; Carlström, Eric; Bruto Winberg, Elin; Karlsson, Tilda; Centre for Person-centred Care
    The inaugural LearnPCC scientific conference was held in Gothenburg, Sweden, on 12–13 December 2024. Organised by the Centre for Person-Centred Care (GPCC) at the University of Gothenburg, in collaboration with national and international partners, the conference aimed to advance the integration of person-centred care (PCC) within higher education. The programme focused on pedagogical strategies, educational innovation, and student engagement to promote PCC across healthcare professions. Participants collaboratively explored approaches to person-centred learning, with emphasis on research dissemination, pedagogical development, and interprofessional dialogue. The event highlighted the vital role of higher education in supporting health, well-being, and compassionate care. Three core themes guided the conference: (1) pedagogical approaches to teaching and learning person-centredness; (2) creating compassionate learning environments; and (3) translating person-centred theory into clinical practice. The programme included empirical studies, theoretical perspectives, practice-based projects, and artistic contributions, shared through keynotes, presentations, workshops, and discussions. The LearnPCC conference demonstrates how academic institutions can foster innovation, collaboration, and applied person-centred learning as a foundation for educational practice.
