Prof. Sabine Brookman-May (US) led an insightful session focused on creating healthy and efficient work environments. She offered valuable strategies for balancing wellbeing with productivity, emphasising the importance of fostering supportive workplace cultures. Later in the programme, Prof. Brookman-May also presented on the importance of breaking taboos in the medical field. She advocated for open dialogue about sensitive topics, promoting a culture of transparency and support.

Jason Howlett (DK) conducted a practical workshop on managing time and energy. He introduced methods for prioritising tasks and reflecting on daily practices. This equipped participants with tools to Rogers maintain their overall wellbeing.

Prof. Eamonn Rogers (IE) addressed the profound impact of medical errors and aggression on healthcare professionals, offering strategies to manage these stresses effectively and maintain mental resilience.

The afternoon featured a fitness session in the park where participants enjoyed a run around the Ciudad de las Artes y Ciencias, followed by stretching and strengthening exercises led by Jason Howlett.

The day concluded with a fun paella cooking class, facilitated by Dr. Carmen Mir (ES). This engaging activity provided participants with an opportunity to bond while preparing delicious meals, which fostered camaraderie and connection.
