The title of his presentation is: Human 4.0: How we get there
Synopsis
Mainstream health systems, dominated by the medico-industrial complex, are increasingly falling short across key health metrics. Despite their potential, nature-aligned approaches – including Complementary and Integrative Medicine (CIM) – have struggled to gain traction, hindered by powerful vested interests that control information, education, funding and policy.
Drawing on over four decades of experience in academia, non-profits and consultancy, Rob will offer a thought-provoking exploration of what a truly transformational model of healthcare could look like – one in which Big Pharma plays a supportive role, rather than holding the reins.
Healthcare 4.0 reclaims health as both a personal and societal asset. It champions individual empowerment, medical ethics and the creation of a shared language that bridges disciplines and dismantles silos.
Rooted in nature’s intelligence, this model is holistic, preventative and regenerative – viewing humans as complex, adaptive beings, continuously interacting with their environments. This inspiring and grounded talk paints a vision for a human health system building on science, ethics and deep respect for both human experience and the natural world.
