Dear Colleagues,

Over the past decade, the field of pediatric and neonatal intensive care has seen remarkable advancements, particularly in areas such as lung injury, sepsis, head trauma, and postoperative care. These strides come amidst a rapidly evolving global landscape, offering both opportunities and challenges for healthcare professionals dedicated to improving outcomes for critically ill children.

We are pleased to announce that the 5th Asian Pediatric Intensive Care Congress (APICC 2025) will be held from May 8th to 11th, 2025, in the stunning setting of Nusa Dua, Bali, Indonesia. This year’s congress is organized alongside the 16th Indonesian PICU NICU Update, as part of the scientific program of the Working Group of Pediatric Emergency and Intensive Care (ETIA), with full support from the Indonesian Pediatric Society – Bali Chapter. The scientific program promises to be dynamic and comprehensive, featuring keynote lectures, symposia, and hands-on workshops covering a wide range of topics in pediatric intensive and critical care. The sessions are designed to benefit the entire interprofessional community, including physicians, nurses, scientists, and allied health professionals.

APICC 2025 offers a unique platform to deepen your expertise, enhance your skills, and share experiences with leading global experts who are dedicated to advancing the care of critically ill children. It is also a valuable opportunity to build meaningful connections and expand your professional network.

Beyond the academic offerings, Bali – the “Island of the Gods”- presents an unforgettable backdrop with its rich cultural heritage and breathtaking natural beauty. It is a place where learning and rejuvenation go hand in hand, making this congress a truly unmissable event.

We look forward to welcoming you to Bali for an inspiring and enriching experience.

See you in Islands of Gods!
