    Abstract:
    The Asia Pacific Hospice Palliative Care Network is a network of individuals and organizations involved in hospice and palliative care in Asia and the Pacific. It currently has 938 members in 28 countries, of whom 793 are individual members and 145 are organizations. Since its formation in 2001, its chief activities are the support of individuals working in palliative care services and the development of links between organizations involved in palliative care within each of its sectors. The Network actively encourages the formation of umbrella bodies or national associations within each sector. Education and training is provided through the services of faculty from countries with better developed palliative care services. A diploma course has also been developed in response to regional needs.
