Medical Summit

Care as a Fraternal Practice

This title brings into your conscience that healthcare is not a mere neutral professional service, but rather is intertwined with the social structure and political system prevailing in the society.

In a country like India, where society is marked by communal status, caste, gender, and economic hierarchies, every act of medical care and healing either reproduces oppression or challenges it.

This summit reframes “care” — patient care, self-care of doctors, community care, and systemic care — as a fraternal practice: an ethical, social, and political commitment to justice, dignity, harmony, co-existence and well-being of the society.
