Abstract Body
Background
Every year the Vasco da Gama Movement gives the Junior Research Award in order to appreciate the advanced research projects of young and future family physicians. The promotion of researches in the field of Family Medicine amongst junior general practitioners can significantly improve quality in Primary Care.
Aim and learning objectives
The Vasco da Gama Movement (VdGM) advocates for encouraging young GPs to lead and present their research projects in the field of family medicine and to share solutions on how to improve work conditions in general practice during the pandemic.
Methods
During this workshop, candidates for Junior Research Award and young GPs selected by an international jury will present their research projects and work improvements related to COVID-19. The workshop will contain the following parts:
- Brief presentation of the previously awarded projects
- Introduction to the VdGM Research Special Interest Group
- Presentations of the research projects which are candidates for Junior Research Award
- Presentations of the implemented improvements in GP practice due to the pandemic
Results and Conclusions:
Appreciating and presenting the work of young researchers in the field of family medicine as well as showcasing their achievements and ideas can motivate junior GPs to explore the opportunities of conducting research projects and emphasize the significance of exchanging work improvements in the interest of the international solidarity and cooperation.
